Abstract:
1. An image processing apparatus comprising: an acquisition unit configured to acquire a first three-dimensional image of a target object in a second body position; a first generation unit configured to generate deformation data indicating a deformation of the first three-dimensional image from the second body position to a first body position; a second generation unit configured to generate a first cross-sectional image of the target object in the second body position from the first three-dimensional image, and a second cross-sectional image of the target object in the first body position based on the deformation data, wherein a position and a posture of the first cross-sectional image and the second cross-sectional image correspond to each other; and a control unit configured to control a display unit to display the first cross-sectional image and the second cross-sectional image, so that the first cross-sectional image and the second cross-sectional image are arranged in a mirror image relationship.
