Abstract
An X-ray imaging apparatus and a fluoroscopic image display apparatus are provided for displaying postural information of a subject on a fluoroscopic image. The X-ray imaging apparatus detects an X-ray irradiated from an X-ray irradiator and passing through a subject and takes a fluoroscopic image. The X-ray detector includes a visible indicator at a corner of an X-ray incidence plane, a display device that displays a fluoroscopic image based on a detection signal from the X-ray detector together with an orient mark corresponding to the indicator, and a writing device that enables a mark indicating the posture of a subject on the displayed fluoroscopic image.
