PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a medical image treatment apparatus capable of highly accurately determining the presence or absence of the deficiency of a lung field in a medical image of a chest.SOLUTION: In a medical image treatment apparatus, a control section 51 of an imaging console 5 calculates a predetermined feature amount (first feature amount) of a partial region adjacent to a boundary of an irradiation field in the irradiation field in a medical image of the front of a chest which is transmitted from an FPD 9, and a predetermined feature amount (second feature amount) representing the presence or absence of a high-concentration region out of the lung field. The section 51 determines the presence or absence of the deficiency of the lung field in the transmitted medical image on the basis of the effects of learning about the first and second feature amounts by a predetermined algorithm.COPYRIGHT: (C)2013,JPO&INPIT【課題】胸部の医用画像において精度良く肺野欠損の有無を判定できるようにする。【解決手段】撮影用コンソール5の制御部51は、FPD9から送信された胸部正面の医用画像において、照射野内で当該照射野の境界に接する部分領域の所定の特徴量(第1の特徴量)と、肺野外の高濃度領域の有無を表す所定の特徴量(第2の特徴量)とを算出し、所定のアルゴリズムによる第1の特徴量と第2の特徴量に関する学習結果に基づいて、送信された医用画像における肺野領域の欠損の有無を判定する。【選択図】図4
