Abstract
An image processing apparatus according to an embodiment of the present disclosure includes processing circuitry. The processing circuitry is configured to obtain volume data of a subject. The processing circuitry is configured to obtain base tubular object data by segmenting the volume data. The processing circuitry is configured to obtain small tubular object data from the volume data. The processing circuitry is configured to generate updated base tubular object data, on the basis of the small tubular object data and the base tubular object data. The processing circuitry is configured to output the updated base tubular object data.
