Abstract
A medical imaging apparatus and a method of processing a medical image. The medical imaging apparatus includes: an image processor configured to respectively determine color values for subregions of an organ based on at least two of first through third analysis values for each of the subregions. A display outputs display of a first map image obtained by respectively mapping the determined color values to the subregions and indicating the determined color values on the subregions. In the case where the image of the organ is a heart, the different parts of the heart correspond to respective subregions, and an indication of a probability of disease corresponds to a plurality of colors in a color map of the regions.
