Abstract
A dose setting unit generates dose control data in order to change a unit time dose of an X-ray beam with which a subject is irradiated during X-ray tomography. An imaging controller makes X-ray intensity when a center axis X-ray (irradiation axis) of an X-ray beam emitted from an X-ray generator is not orthogonal to a tomographic layer of interest relatively smaller than X-ray intensity when the center axis X-ray is orthogonal to the tomographic layer of interest.
