Abstract
A medical image processing apparatus according to an embodiment includes processing circuitry. The processing circuitry acquires the distribution of the wall shear stress of a blood vessel. The processing circuitry extracts a representative value or a blood vessel region from the distribution of the wall shear stress in the blood vessel on the basis of an extraction criterion determined for each region in accordance with the shape or the property of the blood vessel. The processing circuitry changes the display mode of the wall shear stress in the blood vessel on the basis of a result of extracting the representative value of the wall shear stress or a characteristic blood vessel region.
