1. An information processing apparatus that processes data obtained by a scanner positionally variable in relation to a subject, the information processing apparatus comprising:
management circuitry configured to manage a plurality of pieces of the data in an order of obtaining by the scanner;
display controller circuitry configured to control a display apparatus to show a synthesized image generated by synthesizing the plurality of pieces of the data managed by the management circuitry; and
input circuitry configured to accept an operation by a user,
wherein
the input circuitry is further configured to accept an operation to select data including at least one piece of data among the plurality of pieces of the data managed by the management circuitry,
the management circuitry is further configured to set, from selected data of last obtained data, data to be deleted,
the display controller circuitry is further configured to control the display apparatus to show the synthesized image, modified to exclude the data to be deleted, among the plurality of pieces of the data managed by the management circuitry,
wherein the input circuitry is further configured to accept selection of data by accenting in operation via a data selection tool that allows selection of data in an order reverse to the order of obtaining,
wherein as the data selection tool is operated, data to be selected is changed in a grow of one piece of the data or the plurality of pieces of the data in the reverse order, and
wherein when the input circuitry accepts an operation to change the data to be selected for each group, the display controller circuitry is further configured to control the display apparatus to show the synthesized image each time the input circuitry accepts an operation to change the data to be selected.
