A controller generates, based on a position of a marker in an X-ray image, an intermediate image in which a device inserted into a subject's body is displayed. After the generation of the intermediate image, the controller matches the marker of the X-ray image with a marker of the intermediate image based on the position of the marker in the X-ray image and a position of a marker in the intermediate image to align the X-ray image and the intermediate image with each other every time the X-ray image is newly generated. The controller then controls the display to display an overlaid image generated by overlaying the X-ray image and the intermediate image aligned with each other.
