  • Publication number: 20170372473
    Abstract: A medical imaging diagnosis apparatus includes a memory and processing circuitry. The memory stores display settings corresponding to multiple body parts of a subject. The processing circuitry accepts a setting of a display target of the body part based on an input operation. The processing circuitry detects the body part of the subject based on volume data of the subject. The processing circuitry generates a display image of the display target by applying the display setting which corresponds to the body part to the volume data, by reading out from the memory. The processing circuitry displays the display image data on a monitor.
