X-ray imaging system

An X-ray imaging system comprising:

• an X-ray tube device including a cathode, an anode, and a rotation drive unit for rotating the anode, the X-ray tube device being configured to enable X-ray imaging by emitting electrons generated from the cathode to the anode in a state in which the anode is rotating to irradiate an imaging target with X-rays;
• a light irradiation device including a collimator defining an X-ray irradiation range of the X-rays with respect to the imaging target, a visible light irradiation unit for visualizing the X-ray irradiation range by causing a light irradiation state in which visible light is emitted to the imaging target, and a light irradiation operation unit for performing an operation for making the visible light irradiation unit in the light irradiation state;
• and
• a controller configured to control operations of the X-ray tube device and the light irradiation device,
• wherein the controller rotates the anode at an imaging possible rotation speed capable of performing X-ray imaging by the rotation drive unit when the light irradiation operation unit is operated.
