Abstract
An apparatus for medical diagnostic imaging assistance includes memory that stores first feature information representing the feature of a lesion mask or non-lesion mask, a sampling unit that acquires a plurality of samples by making sampling form the memory based on the first feature information, a machine-learning unit that generates a first discrimination condition corresponding to each of samples by carrying out a machine-learning step on the multiple samples, and a statistical processing unit that generates a second discrimination condition by carrying out a statistical processing step under the first discrimination condition, in which a detection function determines whether a lesion candidate mask is an actual lesion by referring to second feature information representing the feature of a lesion candidate mask under a second discrimination condition.
