1. A medical system comprising:

  • an image data acquisition unit that acquires image data corresponding to a three-dimensional (3D) image of a living body including an object;

    a user input unit that receives first input information for setting a point; and

    a processor that generates 3D data by using the image data, generates the 3D image by using the 3D data, detects 3D geometry information corresponding to a 3D caliper from the 3D data based on the first input information, sets the 3D caliper on the 3D image based on the detected 3D geometry information, and creates measurement information,wherein the processor sets a virtual plane on the 3D data, sets an observation plane consisting of a plurality of pixels based on the 3D data, detects a pixel corresponding to the point from the observation plane based on the first input information, detects a voxel which is on the virtual plane and corresponds to the pixel in a predetermined direction, and sets 3D geometry information of the detected voxel as 3D geometry information of the point.
