Abstract
A medical image processing apparatus according to an embodiment includes processing circuitry. The processing circuitry acquires fractional flow reserve at rest in a coronary artery of a subject, and fractional flow reserve at stress in the coronary artery. The processing circuitry calculates an index value based on comparison between the fractional flow reserve at rest and the fractional flow reserve at stress. The processing circuitry displays the index value as an index for a myocardial function of the subject.
