A medical image diagnostic apparatus according to an embodiment includes memory circuitry and processing circuitry. The memory circuitry stores therein a plurality of anatomical landmarks in a subject in association with a plurality of groups. The processing circuitry generates three-dimensional image data of the subject. The processing circuitry selects at least one group among the groups based on set examination information and a type of scan to be performed, and detects a site of the subject corresponding to at least one group, based on anatomical landmarks corresponding to a selected group. The processing circuitry controls to output information indicating a detected site.
