In order to execute a high-resolution reconstructible distance-driven back projection process and to generate a high-resolution tomographic image, an X-ray CT apparatus 1 determines the presence/absence of opposing data corresponding to each piece of target data on the basis of scanning conditions, and calculates a phase range where opposing data is present (Step 21). The X-ray CT apparatus 1 performs high-resolution conversion of a zero-insertion method on a phase range where opposing data is present, and performs high-resolution conversion using a data interpolation method on a phase range where no opposing data is present, thereby creating double sampled high-resolution projection data, and calculates a view weight (Step 22). The X-ray CT apparatus 1 performs a distance-driven high-resolution back projection process using high-resolution projection data and generates a reconstructed image (Step 23).
