At this time, to conduct the CT photographing after the panoramic photographing, the user rotates the X-ray sensor part 320 to 180� using the X-ray sensor part driving means 325 so that the CT sensor 323 is directly opposed to the X-ray source part 310, and then conducts the CT photographing.
At this time, to conduct the panoramic photographing after the CT photographing, since the panoramic sensor 321 must be directly opposed to the X-ray source part 310, the X-ray sensor part 320 is rotated to 180� so that the panoramic sensor 321 gets nearer to the X-ray source part 310 than the CT sensor 323.
At this time, to conduct the CT photographing after the panoramic photographing, the user rotates the X-ray sensor part 420 to 180� using the X-ray sensor part driving means 425 so that the CT sensor 423 is directly opposed to the X-ray source part 410, and then conducts the CT photographing.
At this time, to conduct the panoramic photographing after the CT photographing, since the panoramic sensor 421 must be directly opposed to the X-ray source part 410, the X-ray sensor part 420 is rotated to 180� so that the panoramic sensor 421 gets nearer to the X-ray source part 410 than the CT sensor 423.
To conduct the panoramic photographing again after the CT photographing, the X-ray sensor part 420 is rotated on the eccentric axis to 180� so that the panoramic sensor 421 gets nearer to the X-ray source part 410 than the CT sensor 423.
