Abstract: The medical image processing apparatus according to the present embodiment includes processing circuitry. The processing circuitry is configured to acquire volume data generated based on tomosynthesis imaging of a subject. The processing circuitry is configured to set a virtual focal point at a position different from a focal position in the tomosynthesis imaging. The processing circuitry is configured to generate a pseudo projection image based on the virtual focal point and the volume data.

Abstract: A tomosynthesis image is generated by applying preprocessing to each image obtained by capturing a plurality of X-ray images at a plurality of X-ray tube positions and then performing filtering processing and backprojection. At this time, a proper filter coefficient used filtering is determined for each scan track, each image frame, and each pixel position in an image.

Abstract: A mammography apparatus includes a rotatably supported arm, an X-ray tube to generate X-rays, which is held on one end of the arm, an imaging stage which is held on the other end of the arm, an X-ray detector which detects the X-rays having passed through patient's breast and is contained in the imaging stage, and an armrest which has an armrest main body portion having a convexly curved surface, and a continuous base portion to fix the armrest main body on the arm.

Abstract: A mammographic apparatus for taking an image of a breast by detecting an X-ray radiated from an X-ray tube and transmitted a breast of a subject by means of an X-ray detector. The mammographic apparatus includes a column, a first support frame arranged, for rotation about a rotary axis, on the column and supporting the X-ray tube, a second support frame arranged, for rotation about the rotary axis, on the column and supporting the X-ray detector, and a mechanism for selectively switching over between a first mode that the second support frame is rotated by a rotation force of the first support frame and a second mode that the first support frame is rotated independently of the second support frame.
