ABSTRACT:
A tomographic image reading method for extracting a comparison image corresponding to a diagnostic image, the diagnostic image being one of first tomographic images, the comparison image being one of second tomographic images, the method including the steps of: inputting the first images and the second images; generating a first projection image from the first images and a second projection image from the second images; measuring shift amount between the first projection image and the second projection image by using a template; correcting the slice position according to the shift amount; and displaying the diagnostic image and the comparison image to a monitor.
