Abstract
An image processing apparatus acquires a first low-energy image and a first high-energy image captured in a state in which a grid for removing scattered rays is inserted between a radiation source and a radiation detector, and the radiation source is disposed at a first position at which an incidence direction of radiation is a normal direction with respect to the grid, acquires a second low-energy image and a second high-energy image captured in a state in which the grid retreats from between the radiation source and the radiation detector, and the radiation source is disposed at a second position, estimates a thickness of the subject from the first low-energy image and the first high-energy image, and generates a difference image indicating a difference between the second high-energy image and the second low-energy image from the second low-energy image and the second high-energy image based on the thickness.
