ABSTRACT:
A tomography device for imaging a body has a first imaging member, a second imaging member, and an imaging condition setting member for setting imaging conditions based on a superimposition of an effective tomographic image range and an image obtained using the second imaging member. The first imaging member includes a radiation source for radiating an electromagnetic wave at the body, a detecting member for detecting the electromagnetic wave radiated at and transmitted through the body, and a scanning member for applying scanning motion to the radiation source and the detecting member. The second imaging member obtains a body image from a direction different from a radiation direction from the radiation source to the detecting member used for imaging the body. The tomographic image range is determined based on a scanning range of the scanning member associated with the radiation source and the detecting member.
