Abstract: An evaluation method is performed by an arithmetic circuit and includes obtainment processing (S1), evaluation processing (S2), and presentation processing (S3). The obtainment processing (S1) obtains: image information on a sectional image representing an interested section of an organism including a target section of a testis of the organism generated by use of magnetic resonance of hydrogen atoms; and concentration information on a creatine concentration in the interested section measured by use of magnetic resonance based on chemical exchange saturation transfer. The evaluation processing (S2) generates an evaluation image representing a distribution of evaluation results of a testicular function in the target section based on the concentration information. The presentation processing (S3) presents the sectional image and the evaluation image.
