There is provided an X-ray CT apparatus that allows easy and correct confirmation of which position a bed can be moved to and which region can be imaged. The X-ray CT apparatus performs imaging for obtaining a scanogram(S), displays the scanogram(S), and calculates a transversely movable region(S). Further, the X-ray CT apparatus inputs size of a bow tie filter(S), inputs a transverse movement destination of a bed(S), calculates an imageable region on the basis of the size of the bow tie filter and the transverse movement destination(S), and displays the imageable region(S).

X-ray CT apparatus

An X-ray CT apparatus comprises an X-ray generation device which generates X-rays, an X-ray detector which detects the X-rays having passed through a subject and outputs projection data, an imaging control device which controls the X-ray generation device and the X-ray detector so as to collect projection data, an image reconstruction device which reconstructs image data from the projection data, an image display device which displays an image on the basis of the image data, an image selection information addition device which adds, to the image data, the image selection information for the image data, an image selection device which judges presence/absence of an image analysis process on the basis of the image selection information and selects the image data, and an image analysis processing device which performs the image analysis process on the basis of the image data-selected by the image selection device.
