Claim Text:
1. A medical image generating apparatus comprising: a volume-data generator to generate 3-Dimensional (3D) volume data based on at least one cross-sectional image with respect to a body tissue of a subject; and a controller configured to determine a rotation angle which corresponds to a stereo-depth value when the stereo-depth value is input, determine the rotation angle with respect to the 3D volume data based on the input stereo-depth value if the input stereo-depth value is greater than zero, generate two 3D medical images by volume rendering the 3D volume data on the basis of a predetermined view point and a view point rotated by the rotation angle from the predetermined view point, and generate a 3D stereoscopic medical image by combining the two generated 3D medical images, wherein the rotation angle is determined based on the input stereo-depth value.
