Storage medium, diagnosis support apparatus and diagnosis support method

A storage medium storing a diagnosis support program for making one computer or a plurality of computers function as:

• recognition means for performing recognition processing of a breast image showing a projection image or a section image of a breast of a subject, using one or more recognizers from among a plurality of recognizers each including a neural network;
• and
• selection means for selecting a recognizer to be used for the recognition processing or a recognizer that is to output a recognition result of the recognition processing, from among the plurality of recognizers, according to examination information relating to an examination of the subject.
