ABSTRACT:
An X-ray inspection apparatus is disclosed. An inside area defining unit defines an area inside the rim of the can in an X-ray image created by an image formation unit. An extension area defining unit rotates a circle such that the circle externally touches the above-mentioned area, and defines an extension area whose boundary is the locus of the center of the externally touching circle. A reduction area defining unit rotates a circle having the same radius such that it internally touches the extension area, and defines a reduction area whose boundary is the locus of the center of the internally touching circle. A mask area defining unit defines a region outside the boundary of the reduction area as a mask area, and the first contaminant detection unit performs an inspection for contamination in an inspection area inside the mask area defined by an inspection area defining unit.
