Abstract
An image processing apparatus includes an acquiring unit and an image processing unit. The acquiring unit acquires a radiographic image acquired by irradiating a radiation on an object and a scattered-ray component contained in the radiographic image, wherein the scattered-ray component originates from a scattered ray which is a radiation scattered in the object. The image processing unit performs an image process on the radiographic image in accordance with an instruction, wherein the image processing unit performs an image process based on a radiographic image acquired by the acquiring unit and a scattered-ray component acquired by the acquiring unit in a case where an instruction to perform the image process is received again.
