Abstract
A medical image processing apparatus of an embodiment includes processing circuitry acquiring an X-ray image about a subject, acquiring an ultrasonic image data about the subject, extracting an object contained in the X-ray image, and performing processing based on the position of the extracted object on the ultrasonic image data in accordance with the relative positional relation between a coordinate system in the X-ray image and a coordinate system in the ultrasonic image data to generate a composite image as a combination of a processed ultrasonic image data after being subjected to the processing and the X-ray image.
