Abstract
A medical image processing apparatus and a medical image processing method are provided which are capable of reducing metal artifacts and preserving the image quality even in a region less affected by metal artifacts. The medical image processing apparatus includes an arithmetic section that reconstructs a tomographic image from projection data of an object under examination including a metal. The arithmetic section acquires a machine learning output image that is output when the tomographic image is input to a machine learning engine that machine-learns to reduce metal artifacts, and the arithmetic section composites the machine learning output image and the tomographic image to generate a composite image.
