Abstract
According to one embodiment, a medical image processing apparatus includes processing circuitry. The processing circuitry obtains time changes in intensity of image signals corresponding to a contrast agent or a blood flow based on at least one of time series contrast image data, time series non-contrast image data, and time series subtraction image data between the contrast image data and the non-contrast image data, generate color image data, having color pixel values based on the time changes in the image signals, according to a color scale, and display frames of the color image data sequentially on a display. The processing circuitry performs a loop playing of the frames of the color image data by sequentially shifting the color scale in a direction of a color phase change, at pixels of the color image data, until an instruction for stopping the loop playing is input from an input circuit.
