Abstract
This invention provides a technique of appropriately managing a high-resolution tomographic image and effectively displaying an arbitrary cross section even under an environment where a 3D texture has a size limitation. An information processing apparatus includes a determination unit adapted to determine whether a size of a plurality of tomographic images acquired from a single object is not more than a predetermined size, a management unit adapted to, upon determining that the size is not more than the predetermined size, manage the plurality of tomographic images as three-dimensional voxel data, a decision unit adapted to decide a cross-sectional image as a display target of an object image managed as the three-dimensional voxel data, and a display control unit adapted to cause a display unit to display the decided cross-sectional image.
