1. An image processing method comprising steps of:
obtaining a plurality of image data from an object;
generating, from the image data, a three-dimensional (3-D) model having at least two different representation modes; and
displaying the 3-D model having the at least two different representation modes,
wherein the representation modes comprise a reliability mode including reliability of the 3-D model obtained by overlap of the image data and a texture mode including object representation information,
wherein the step of displaying the 3-D model displays the texture mode and the reliability mode of the 3-D model at the same time,
in the reliability mode, a reliability indication degree of reliability indication means is changed based on the reliability, and
as the reliability is increased, a ratio of the reliability indication degree is decreased so that the reliability indication means on a reliability mode side of the 3-D model is gradually indicated as a texture indication means on the texture mode side.
