Abstract
A medical image processing apparatus and a medical image processing method capable of improving structural component detectability with respect to a noise component in a medical image. The medical image processing apparatus includes: a separation unit that separates the medical image into a first component including a structural component as a main component and a second component including a noise component as a main component; a modulation unit that modulates the second component with a spatial frequency; and a correction unit that generates a corrected image based on the first component and the modulated second component.
