1. A medical image processing apparatus comprising:
processing circuitry configured to
obtain a three-dimensional image of a blood vessel of a subject and obtains spatial distribution of values of wall shear stress at each position of the blood vessel, and
display, from an arbitrary angle, a display image formed by assigning the values of the wall shear stress to the three-dimensional image; and
an input interface configured to receive an input operation for changing the angle, wherein
during display of the display image formed by assigning the values of the wall shear stress to the three-dimensional image, the processing circuitry is configured to change display form of the display image between
rotational display in which the display image is displayed while changing the angle with time, and
nonrotational display in which the angle is not changed.
