Abstract
The X-ray diagnostic apparatus includes an X-ray emitting device, an X-ray detection device, a fluoroscopic image generating unit, a calcified region detection unit and a display control unit. The fluoroscopic image generating unit generates a plurality of frames of fluoroscopic images of an object on a basis of detected X-rays in sequence. The calcified region detection unit detects a calcified region on each of the fluoroscopic images in sequence. The display control unit superimposes a calcified region image on a position of the calcified region on each of the fluoroscopic images in sequence, the calcified region image including a calcified region on a pre-acquired CT image or MR image of the object, and displays resulting images on a display device in sequence.
