1. An electronic apparatus for providing brain lesion information based on an image, the electronic apparatus comprising:
a magnetic resonance angiography (MRA) provider configured to provide an environment capable of displaying 3D time-of-flight magnetic resonance angiography (3D TOF MRA) using user input;
a brain lesion input unit configured to annotate a brain lesion area and to generate and manage a brain lesion image by combining the annotated brain lesion area and the 3D TOF MRA;
a maximum intensity projection (MIP) converter configured to configure MIP image data including at least one image frame corresponding to a projection position of the brain lesion image;
a noise remover configured to configure at least one three-dimensional sinogram using the brain lesion image, remove noise of the at least one three-dimensional sinogram, and configure corrected MIP image data reflecting brain lesion information based on the noise-removed three-dimensional sinogram; and
an MRA reconfiguration unit configured to reconfigure a corrected brain lesion image by back-projecting the corrected MIP image data.
