ABSTRACT:
A tomographic apparatus for obtaining a cross-sectional image by fixing an X-ray source, and synchronously rotating an object under examination and a detector. According to the apparatus, the slope angle of the X-ray source can be sufficiently enlarged by the adjustment of the X-ray tube, and thus the precision of the obtained cross-sectional image can be heightened. Also, a method of obtaining a cross-sectional image of a three-dimensional object from an arbitrary direction and height.
