Abstract
According to one embodiment, a nuclear medicine diagnostic apparatus includes processing circuitry. The processing circuitry is configured to obtain an X-ray CT image relating to a subject. The processing circuitry is configured to obtain a camera image capturing a position and a shape of the subject corresponding to the X-ray CT image. The processing circuitry is configured to generate an attenuation map based on the camera image and the X-ray CT image. The processing circuitry is configured to obtain detection data based on gamma rays radiating from a radiation source administered into the subject. The processing circuitry is configured to reconstruct an image based on the attenuation map and the detection data.
