An image acquisition unit acquires a plurality of projection images by imaging a subject at each of a plurality of radiation source positions. A reconstruction unit reconstructs the plurality of projection images to generate a plurality of tomographic images. A frequency decomposition unit frequency-decomposes each of the plurality of tomographic images to acquire a plurality of band tomographic images, which show frequency components of each of the plurality of frequency bands, for each of the plurality of tomographic images. A two-dimensional image generation unit generates a band synthesized two-dimensional image by projecting the plurality of band tomographic images for each frequency band. A frequency synthesizing unit performs frequency synthesis by weighting the band synthesized two-dimensional image for each frequency band, thereby generating a composite two-dimensional image.
