Abstract
In an X-ray inspecting apparatus, a rotational fluctuation amount of a stage is calculated around a power transmission part of the stage and a stage drive unit as a base point, i.e., the X-axis and Y-axis sliding parts, in accordance with detected positional information from a position detecting sensor. Then, a stage shift amount is calculated in accordance with the rotational fluctuation amount and a distance between the base point and an imaging position on the stage. Here, the stage shift amount corresponds to a positional deviation of the stage at the imaging position caused by an attitude variation of the stage in a yawing direction, and thus is an error in repeated positioning. Accordingly, a tomographic image with high resolution can be generated in consideration of the error in repeated positioning.
