Abstract
An X-ray CT apparatus, in which a plurality of dynamic tomographic images obtained by repeatedly photographing a region of interest of a subject under examination are stored in an image memory, for subsequent display on a display device. A processing device extracts data of pixels along a certain line common to all of the tomographic images, and stores the pixel data in the image memory, in the order of photographing time of the tomographic images, thus forming a time sequence image formed of picked-up pixels. The processing device reduces a tomographic image and the time sequence image, and rearranges the reduced images in one frame area of the image memory for simultaneous display thereof on the display device.
