Abstract
A mammography apparatus includes a diagnostic image acquisition unit that acquires a diagnostic image in which a calcification as a biopsy target is marked; a scout image acquisition unit that acquires a scout image obtained by imaging a mamma undergoing the biopsy from a specific direction; and a display unit that highlights a calcification (candidate for biological tissue examination) in the scout image which matches at least the marked calcification in the diagnostic image.
