1. A three-dimensional image processing apparatus comprising:
- an obtainer that obtains three-dimensional image information including information of a first image and a second image;
a shade information obtainer that obtains shade information from the information of the first image and/or the second image; and
a disparity adjuster that adjusts a disparity of a subject contained in the first and the second images based on the shade information.

7. A three-dimensional image processing apparatus comprising:
an obtainer that obtains three-dimensional image information including a first image and a second image; a disparity detector that determines distance information from the information of the first image and the second image, the distance information including information indicating a disparity between a pixel of the first image and a pixel of the second image corresponding to the pixel of the first image, for each of pixels of the first image; a shade information obtainer that obtains shade information from the information of the first image and/or the second image; an irregularity estimator that determines information on irregularity of a subject contained in the first image and the second image based on the shade information; and a synthesizer that newly determines distance information based on the distance information determined by the disparity detector and the information on irregularity, the newly determined distance information including information indicating a disparity between a pixel of the first image and a pixel of the second image corresponding to the pixel of the first image, for each pixel of the first image.

9. A three-dimensional image processing method comprising:
-
obtaining three-dimensional image information including information of a first image and a second image; determining distance information from the information of the first image and the second image, the distance information including information indicating a disparity between a pixel of the first image and a pixel of the second image corresponding to the pixel of the first image, for each of pixels of the first image; obtaining shade information from the information of the first image and/or the second image; determining information on irregularity of a subject contained in the first image and the second image based on the shade information; and newly determining distance information based on the distance information previously determined and the information on irregularity, the newly determined distance information including information indicating a disparity between a pixel of the first image and a pixel of the second image corresponding to the pixel of the first image, for each pixel of the first image.
