Abstract
An X-ray generator generating an X-ray cone beam and a two-dimensional X-ray detector detecting the X-ray cone beam are supported by a support arm while facing each other, and the X-ray generator and the two-dimensional X-ray detector are turned with an object interposed therebetween. A filter constitution body is disposed between the two-dimensional X-ray detector and the object. Filters having X-ray beam energy distribution conversion characteristics different from each other are arrayed in the filter constitution body. In X-ray photography, a filter constitution body moving mechanism is moved in a direction along a detection surface of the two-dimensional X-ray detector such that the filter constitution body traverses the X-ray cone beam in turning the support arm.
