Abstract
An X-ray Computed Tomography (CT) apparatus according to an embodiment includes storage circuitry and processing circuitry. The storage circuitry is configured to store therein a table keeping first information about an energy spectrum of X-rays in correspondence with second information about a focal point position of an X-ray tube. The processing circuitry is configured to obtain third information about an energy spectrum of X-rays emitted from the X-ray tube. The processing circuitry is configured to specify a corrected focal point position on the basis of the third information and the table.
