Abstract
An X-ray imaging apparatus includes an X-ray irradiation unit which irradiates X-rays, a detection unit which detects the X-rays transmitted through an object, and a housing which contains the detection unit. The housing includes a first housing in which an X-ray transmission member which transmits the X-rays is placed in an incident range of the X-rays irradiated from the X-ray irradiation unit; a second housing which supports the detection unit while being spaced apart from the X-ray transmission member on an opposite side to an incident side on which the X-rays strike the X-ray transmission member; and a plurality of connecting members which connect the first housing to the second housing.
