ABSTRACT:
A hemorrhage edge candidate area extraction section extracts a candidate area for the outline part of a hemorrhage area, based on an image signal of a medical image constituted by multiple color signals obtained by capturing an image of a living body. A feature quantity calculation section calculates a feature quantity of the hemorrhage area based on calculation of the amount of change in the image signal in a small area including the candidate area, among multiple small areas obtained by dividing the medical image. A hemorrhage edge determination section determines whether or not the candidate areas are the outline part of the hemorrhage area based on the feature quantity.
