Abstract
A medical image processing apparatus according to one embodiment includes processing circuitry. The processing circuitry trains an attention model by using a medical image and a mask image that is obtained by performing mask processing on a region other than a region of interest in the medical image, trains an image processing model by using the medical image, a heatmap corresponding to the medical image, and an attention feature that indicates attention of the region of interest in the trained attention model, combines, as an attention image processing model, an attention extraction module that includes an attention module for outputting the attention feature and the trained image processing model, performs processing on the medical image by using the attention image processing model, and generates a heatmap for determining a position of a landmark in the medical image.
