Abstract
A medical image processing apparatus of an embodiment includes a processing circuitry. The processing circuitry extracts a plurality of valve leaflets of a heart valve from image data of a subject. The processing circuitry measures, with respect to at least one valve leaflet of the valve leaflets, a length of a region at which the valve leaflet is in contact with another valve leaflet, in a predetermined reference direction. The processing circuitry controls a display to display a distribution of the length at each of a plurality of positions on the valve leaflet.
