Abstract
A display screen of an image display section is divided into an image display area for displaying an image and an operation panel display area, an image (base image) imaged by an X-ray CT apparatus, for example, is displayed on the upper part (base area) of the image display area, an image (match image) imaged by a MRI apparatus is displayed in the middle part (match area), and an operation panel, which is composed of an operation panel display area 2 of the image display section and respective operation keys for aligning the images, is displayed thereon. When the operation panel is operated and fit points are provided to the images or a region of interest (ROI) is set on the base image, a CPU aligns and composes the respective images based on the fit points or ROI, and displays the fusion image on the lower part (fusion area) of the image display area. As a result, both the images can be compared with each other visually.
