Upon puncture treatment, the position of the puncture target point for the lesion site as seen from the puncture path direction a to provide accurate novel puncture treatment support method and puncture treatment supporting apparatus and program for the puncture treatment support device can be grasped. It obtains three-dimensional image data of the subject 110 by the CT imaging, the sets and the piercing point S and the target point T of the puncture device which punctures the subject 110, piercing point S and a target point that is set on the basis of the data first tomographic image and said containing a target point T and the first and second fault plane at a predetermined angle while obtaining a tomographic image of the second slice surface of a tomographic plane including the puncturing route R connecting the T by acquiring a third fault plane tomographic image forming the to display these tomographic images. This upon puncture treatment, the position of the puncture target point T it can accurately grasp for the lesion site Q as seen from the puncture route R direction.穿刺治療に際し、穿刺経路方向から見た病巣部位に対する穿刺目標点の位置を正確に把握できる新規な穿刺治療支援方法および穿刺治療支援装置ならびに穿刺治療支援装置用プログラムを提供する。CT撮影によって被検体110の三次元画像データを取得し、このデータに基づいて前記被検体110に穿刺する穿刺具の穿刺点Sと目標点Tとを設定し、設定した穿刺点Sと目標点Tとを結ぶ穿刺経路Rを含む第1の断層面の断層像と第2の断層面の断層像を取得すると共に前記目標点Tを含みかつ前記第1および第2の断層面と所定の角度βをなす第3の断層面の断層像を取得してこれらの断層像を表示する。これによって穿刺治療に際し、穿刺経路R方向から見た病巣部位Qに対する穿刺目標点Tの位置を正確に把握できる。
