Abstract
A technique is provided that makes it possible to easily recognize the pre-defined image on the image obtained in the present. An X-ray CT apparatus creates first volume data and second volume data based on the results of scanning a subject with X-rays at different timings. The X-ray CT apparatus comprises: a setter, a storage and a display controller. The setter is configured to set a specified setup image in regard to an image based on the first volume data. The storage is configured to store the setup image and a setup position thereof. The display controller is configured to cause a display to display an image based on the second volume data, as well as causing the setup image to be displayed in the position corresponding to the setup position in the image based on the second volume data.

8. An X-ray CT apparatus configured to create volume data based on the results of scanning a subject with X-rays, comprising:
-
a first setter configure to set an insertion route of a puncture needle in regard to the subject in an image based on a pre-created first volume data, and a determinator configured to determine the existence or otherwise of misalignment between the puncture needle and the insertion route in a image based on a second volume data created based on the results of a scan implemented while the puncture needle is inserted into the subject, and a second setter configured to set a new insertion route in regard to the image based on the second volume data in cases where the misalignment is determined to exist, and a display controller configured to cause the display of the image based on the second volume data on a display, as well as causing the display of the newly set insertion route in the image based on the second volume data. - View Dependent Claims (9, 10, 11, 12, 13)
