PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an X-ray imaging apparatus to achieve the X-ray imaging technique that dispenses with synchronization with an X ray generation timing.SOLUTION: The X-ray imaging apparatus includes an X-ray detector 110 to detect X-rays irradiated from an X-ray source, a detector control unit 120 which controls the drive of the X-ray detector, and a notifying unit 130 that notifies the drive state of the X-ray detector 110. The notifying unit 130 notifies the drive state of the X-ray detector 110 so as to enable a person who performs imaging to identify that the X-ray detector 110 is in a detection signal accumulation state and then turn on an X-ray generator irradiation button for irradiating X-rays.COPYRIGHT: (C)2013,JPO&INPIT【課題】X線発生タイミングとの同期を不要とするX線撮影技術を実現できるX線撮影装置を提供する。【解決手段】X線源から照射されたX線を検出するX線検出器110と、X線検出器を駆動制御する検出器制御部120と、X線検出器の駆動状態を報知する報知部130とを具備し、報知部130がX線検出器110の駆動状態を報知することで、撮影者においてX線検出器110が検出信号の蓄積状態であることを識別でき、その後、X線発生装置の照射ボタンをオンすることでX線を照射できる。【選択図】図1
