1. An image region designation device that designates a region in a radiological image including a distal portion of a human body, comprising:
- a partial region extraction unit for extracting a partial region including the distal portion in the vicinity of a boundary between a subject region including the distal portion and a void region from the radiological image; and
a designation region determination unit for determining at least one of the void region and the partial region as a designation region for designating the partial region.
