X-ray diagnostic apparatus and image processing method

Abstract

In one embodiment, an X-ray diagnostic apparatus comprising: an X-ray tube configured to irradiate an imaging part of an object with X-rays; an X-ray detector configured to detect the X-rays; an image sensor configured to image the object; and processing circuitry configured to acquire: a human body model; image data from the image sensor; and imaging geometry information, detect positioning of the object from the image data, set the human body model based on detected positioning of the object, generate a predicted X-ray image that is predicted to be detected by the X-ray detector, by using the set human body model and the imaging geometry information, and display the predicted X-ray image.
