Zusammenfassung:PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a tumor region size measurement method, apparatus, and program, by which the lengths of a major axis and a minor axis which appropriately reflect the three-dimensional size of a tumor can be provided, as indexes for evaluating the tumor. SOLUTION: A tumor region is determined from a three-dimensional medical image, and the major axis and the minor axis of the determined tumor region are determined. The lengths of the determined long axis and short axis are measured, and the lengths of the measured long axis and short axis are displayed. The lengths of the determined major axis and minor axis are made the size of the tumor region. COPYRIGHT: (C)2009,JPO&INPIT
