Abstract

Provided is a method and an apparatus for generating an X-ray. The method for generating an X-ray image by the apparatus includes: obtaining a first camera image of the examinee's head by the camera image obtaining processor; obtaining a first projection image by photographing a first region of the examinee's head by the X-ray photographing unit; changing a relative position between the examinee's head and the X-ray photographing unit by the driving unit; obtaining a second camera image of the examinee's head by the camera image obtaining processor; obtaining a second projection image by photographing a second region of the examinee's head by the X-ray photographing unit; and generating the X-ray image by stitching and reconstructing the first projection image and the second projection image based on the first camera image and the second camera image by the X-ray image generation unit.
