Provided is a novel technique for quantitatively evaluating tracer accumulation for nuclear medicine examinations of the heart. In a preferred embodiment, the radiation count information obtained by myocardial nuclear medicine measurement is normalized using a value relating to the size of the heart. In a preferred embodiment, the pixel value of each pixel of myocardial nuclear medicine image data is converted into standardized uptake values (SUV) capable of being represented by [SUV=Tissue radioactivity concentration/(Administered radiation dose/Value relating to size of heart)]. The value relating to the size of the heart may be a myocardial weight, for example.
