Abstract
A medical image diagnosis apparatus according to an embodiment includes an imager, a storage, and processing circuitry. The storage stores therein a correspondence relationship between each of disease patterns and scans used for performing a differential diagnosis process on the disease pattern. The processing circuitry obtains, based on image data acquired by a first scan, a disease pattern having a possibility of being applicable to the subject and a first index value indicating a degree of applicability of the disease pattern. The processing circuitry outputs information indicating the disease pattern to a display when it is possible to perform the differential diagnosis process based on the first index value and outputs an imaging condition used for performing a second scan based on the correspondence relationship and the disease pattern having the possibility when it is not possible to perform the differential diagnosis process based on the first index value.
