Abstract
An image pickup device includes a disk with an aperture through which X-rays can transmit. The device includes a vacuum suction ring having an inner peripheral ring and an outer peripheral ring having different heights, which fixes a position of the aperture with respect to a subject. The device includes a rotation stage that holds the subject and the disk with an aperture fixed by the vacuum suction ring and can rotate at a desired angle about a rotation axis along a direction perpendicular to a surface of the subject, and a one-dimensional detector in which line-shaped pixels are disposed at a predetermined pixel pitch. An imaging mirror forms an image of X-rays transmitted through the subject and the aperture on the one-dimensional detector. A control analysis unit corrects coordinates of an image intensity profile and reconstructs an image of the subject from the image intensity profile after the correction.
