Abstract
A combination unit generates a plurality of composite two-dimensional images from a plurality of tomographic images acquired by performing tomosynthesis imaging on an object using different generation methods. In this case, the combination unit generates a first composite two-dimensional image having a quality corresponding to a two-dimensional image acquired by simple imaging or a second composite two-dimensional image in which a structure included in the object has been highlighted as at least one of the plurality of composite two-dimensional images.
