ABSTRACT:
An image processing apparatus can display a tomographic image of an object in a three-dimensional region and a three-dimensional or stereoscopic image, such as a three-dimensional surface image of the object or a three-dimensional transparent image thereof, simultaneously on a screen. A sectional plane from which the tomographic image is produced is freely designated on the three-dimensional image displayed on the screen. The sectional plane can be indicated on the displayed three-dimensional image by a cursor line. Further, a data processing range along the ultrasound beam direction can be determined on the displayed tomographic image, in which the three-dimensional image is produced from the echo data obtained from the data processing range. Such a data processing range can also be indicated on the displayed tomographic image by means of cursor lines.
