Abstract
Data is computed in order to visualize the velocity of blood fluid flowing through a blood vessel at a fundus. An image processing method includes a step of performing registration of each frame in a moving image configured by plural frames of an imaged fundus, and a step of computing visualization data enabling visualization of a state of blood fluid flowing through a blood vessel at the fundus based on a pixel value in each of the registered frames.
