Medical image display apparatus and medical image display method

A medical image display method that a medical image display device displaying medical images performs, including:

• a displaying step where a display unit displays a cuboid object that is an assembly of multiple unit cells;
• a memorizing step where a storage unit memorizes images included in a successive image group and corresponding to respective unit cells, each unit cell of the cuboid object being associated on one-to-one basis with a corresponding image according to a predetermined physical quantities with the respective directions of the three axes of the cuboid object;
• an inputting step where an input unit inputs a three-dimensional position in the cuboid object, and
• a controlling step where a control unit controls so that one or multiple images associated with one or multiple unit cells determined according to the three-dimensional position input from the input unit are retrieved from the storage unit and are displayed on the display unit,
• wherein the inputting step inputs the three-dimensional position in the cuboid object using a positioning line, and
• the controlling step controls so that the display unit displays the positioning line superimposed on the cuboid object, and
• wherein the inputting step inputs a line width of the positioning line, and
• the controlling step controls so that the number of images that the display unit displays is changed according to the line width of the positioning line tat is input by the inputting step.
