1. A medical image acquisition apparatus comprising: a biopsy apparatus; an imaging table that is used to capture an image of a living body disposed on an imaging surface with an imaging apparatus; a projector that projects the image; and at least one processor, wherein the processor performs control of projecting information regarding a biopsy that is performed on the living body using the biopsy apparatus, from the projector toward the imaging surface of the imaging table.

2. The medical image acquisition apparatus according to claim 1, wherein the processor performs control of projecting a disposing position of the living body in a case where the living body is disposed on the imaging surface of the imaging table, a position of a biopsy needle that has punctured the living body and is attached to the biopsy apparatus, and a collection position where a biological tissue is to be collected using the biopsy needle, from the projector toward the imaging surface of the imaging table.

3. The medical image acquisition apparatus according to claim 2, wherein the processor performs control of, in a case where the living body is punctured with the biopsy needle along the imaging surface of the imaging table, projecting the disposing position of the living body, the position of the biopsy needle, and the collection position, from the projector toward the imaging surface of the imaging table.

4. The medical image acquisition apparatus according to claim 3, wherein the processor performs control of projecting a puncturable range of the biopsy needle of the biopsy apparatus, from the projector toward the imaging surface of the imaging table.

5. The medical image acquisition apparatus according to claim 4, wherein the processor performs control of projecting the puncturable range of the biopsy needle according to a direction in which the living body is punctured with the biopsy needle, from the projector toward the imaging surface of the imaging table.

6. The medical image acquisition apparatus according to claim 5, wherein the processor performs control of, in a case where the collection position is not included in the puncturable range of the biopsy needle, outputting a warning such that the living body is punctured with the biopsy needle from a different direction.

7. The medical image acquisition apparatus according to claim 3, wherein the processor performs control of projecting the position of the biopsy needle in accordance with a motion of the biopsy needle, from the projector toward the imaging surface of the imaging table.

8. The medical image acquisition apparatus according to claim 7, wherein the processor performs control of projecting information regarding a distance from a distal end of the biopsy needle to an epidermis of the living body and a depth of the collection position along a direction intersecting the imaging surface of the imaging table, from the projector toward the imaging surface of the imaging table.

9. The medical image acquisition apparatus according to claim 8, wherein the processor performs control of projecting a position of a blood vessel in the living body using the image of the living body captured by the imaging apparatus, from the projector toward the imaging surface of the imaging table.

10. The medical image acquisition apparatus according to claim 9, wherein the processor performs control of projecting a position of a blood vessel having a predetermined thickness or more, from the projector toward the imaging surface of the imaging table.

11. The medical image acquisition apparatus according to claim 10, wherein the processor performs control of changing a display form of the position of the blood vessel projected from the projector toward the imaging surface of the imaging table, depending on the thickness of the blood vessel.

12. The medical image acquisition apparatus according to claim 10, wherein the processor performs control of changing a display form of the position of the blood vessel projected from the projector toward the imaging surface of the imaging table, depending on the depth of the blood vessel along the direction intersecting the imaging surface of the imaging table.

13. The medical image acquisition apparatus according to claim 10, wherein the processor performs control of projecting a position of a blood vessel passing between the collection position and the epidermis of the living body punctured with the biopsy needle, from the projector toward the imaging surface of the imaging table.

14. The medical image acquisition apparatus according to claim 3, wherein the processor performs control of projecting the disposing position of the living body from the projector toward the imaging surface of the imaging table such that the collection position is within a range of an opening portion of a compression plate, the compression plate being a plate that compresses the living body against the imaging surface of the imaging table and having the opening portion on a surface facing the imaging surface of the imaging table.

15. The medical image acquisition apparatus according to claim 14, wherein in a case where there are a plurality of collection positions and not all the collection positions are within the range of the opening portion of the compression plate, the processor performs control of projecting a disposing position of the living body, which is adjusted such that the collection position having a higher priority for collection of a biological tissue than other collection positions is within the range of the opening portion, from the projector toward the imaging surface of the imaging table.

16. The medical image acquisition apparatus according to claim 2, wherein the processor performs control of further projecting information regarding a position where an anesthetic needle is inserted and a depth to which the anesthetic needle is inserted along a direction intersecting the imaging surface of the imaging table, from the projector toward the imaging surface of the imaging table, before the living body is punctured with the biopsy needle.

17. The medical image acquisition apparatus according to claim 2, wherein the processor performs control of projecting an elapsed time after the biopsy needle puncturing the living body is pulled out from the living body, from the projector toward the imaging surface of the imaging table.

18. A mammography apparatus constituting the medical image acquisition apparatus according to claim 1, wherein the imaging apparatus is a radiography apparatus that captures a radiation image of the living body by irradiating the living body with radiation, and the living body is a breast.
