Abstract
A support apparatus comprises processing circuitry. The processing circuitry is configured to calculate, based on an irradiation plan with radiation on a target site of a subject, a recommendation degree of disposition of an ultrasonic probe configured to scan the target site at irradiation with the radiation, for each position in the subject. And the processing circuitry is configured to notify an operator of the recommendation degree in association with a position in the subject.
