Abstract
An X-ray image detecting apparatus devised so as to project an X-ray image of an object on a image receiving plane made of two-dimensionally arrayed picture elements with the object irradiated by many thin scanning X-ray beams. The beams, which penetrate the object, scan coincidentally a limited number of the picture elements of which they take a charge respectively, causing the time of scanning the whole area of the image receiving plane to be short. The image signals successively outputted from the picture elements are stored in a memory with only their respective maximum values selected. Thus, the image signals are made free from being adversely affected by the stray X-rays scattered from the inside of the object, and provide a high-contrast X-ray image.
