1. A medical image processing apparatus of generating an electronic document used to display a three-dimensional body organ model, the medical image processing apparatus comprising:
a memory storing instructions; and
at least one processor that, upon execution of the instructions, is configured to operate as:
an accepting unit that accepts an instruction for generating an electronic document;
a surface shape generation unit that generates surface shape data from medical image data and stores the surface shape data in a storage; and
a control unit that generates the electronic document with the three-dimensional body organ model using the surface shape data generated by the surface shape generation unit, in response to the instruction accepted by the accepting unit,
wherein the control unit determines, upon accepting the instruction, whether or not the surface shape data for the three-dimensional body organ model is stored in the storage,
wherein in the case where it is determined that the surface shape data is stored in the storage, the surface shape generation unit does not generate the surface shape data again, the control unit generates the electronic document with the three-dimensional body organ model using the surface shape data stored in the storage,
wherein in the case where it is determined that the surface shape data is not stored in the storage, the control unit generates the electronic document with the three-dimensional body organ model using the surface shape data after the surface shape generation unit generates the surface shape data, and
wherein the surface shape generation unit converts the medical image data to the surface shape data in accordance with Marching cubes algorithm.
