Abstract:
An X-ray imaging apparatus implements a fluoroscopy that irradiates a weaker dose of X-rays than a dose on the long-length imaging toward a subject M at each location in the long-length imaging range, while moving an X-ray tube in a body axis direction relative to the subject M prior to the long-length imaging, when the long-length imaging is implemented by moving the X-ray tube  2  in the body axis direction relative to the subject M. The dose D 1  at the location having the thick body thickness is less, so that the tube voltage is set up to be high as the tube voltage V 1  and vice versa, the dose D 2  at the location having the thin body thickness is high, so that the tube voltage is set up to be low as the tube voltage V 2 . The tube voltage is set up to implement a long-length imaging so that doses of X-rays that transmit the subject coincide with each other at each location based on the X-ray dose that transmits the subject M on the fluoroscopy, so that the imaging condition relative to the long-length imaging in the region in which the height (body thickness) of the subject is different from each other can be set up appropriately.

Claim (Index 3):
The X-ray imaging apparatus, according to  claim 2 , wherein:\n said electromagnetic wave is an X-ray; and a fluoroscopy, in which a weaker dose than on said long-length imaging that generates a long-length image is irradiated toward a subject from said electromagnetic wave irradiation means, is implemented at said each location relative to said long-length imaging range, and said data conversion means converts the X-ray dose based on results of said fluoroscopy to the data relative to the height of said subject at said each location in said long-length imaging range.
