A medical image diagnostic apparatus of an embodiment includes processing circuitry. The processing circuitry executes a scan based on a protocol designated by a user. The processing circuitry extracts a candidate protocol to be executed next to the protocol, based on protocol order information in which identification information that indicates each of a plurality of candidate protocols that can be executed starting from a specific protocol, and order information in which each candidate protocol is executed, are correlated with each other. The processing circuitry outputs the extracted candidate protocol.

Medical image diagnostic apparatus, medical information processing system, and computer program product

In one embodiment, An X-ray CT apparatus includes: a rotating body and processing circuitry configured to extract an anatomical landmark from a medical image of an object acquired by a first scan, identify a shape of an anatomical site of the object based on the anatomical landmark, and set scanning conditions of a second scan based on the shape of the anatomical site, the second scan including a tilt scan in which a scan is performed under a condition where the rotating body is tilted, the scanning conditions including at least a tilt angle of the tilt scan.
