Abstract
Provides an X-ray diagnostic imaging apparatus that makes it possible to pick up images of a subject under examination at accurate and a variety of positions thereby to improve the operation of an operator and that realizes a simple and compact structure of the apparatus. This X-ray diagnostic imaging apparatus comprises an X-ray generator for irradiating X-rays onto the subject, an X-ray detector for taking in an X-ray image formed by the X-rays irradiated by the X-ray generator onto the subject and transmitted through the subject, an arm extended from the X-ray generator to make a detour around the subject, for holding the X-ray detector, and holders for movably holding the X-ray generator. The X-ray generator and the X-ray detector are formed integrally by the arm, and the X-ray generator is held and driven by the holders.
