Abstract
According to one embodiment, an X-ray diagnostic apparatus includes a first arm, a second arm, a holding structure, an X-ray tube and an X-ray detector. The first arm rotates by a first rotating shaft and slides along a first arc-like slide axis relatively to the first rotating shaft. The second arm rotates by a second rotating shaft and slides along a second arc-like slide axis relatively to the second rotating shaft. The holding structure is connected with a first arm side and configured to hold the second arm. The X-ray tube and the X-ray detector are installed on the second arm.

An X-ray diagnostic apparatus comprising:
- a first arm rotating around a first rotating axis and sliding along a first arc-like rail relatively to the first rotating axis, the first rotating axis being vertical;
- a second arm rotating around a second rotating axis and sliding along a second arc-like rail relatively to the second rotating axis, the second rotating axis being fixed on the first arm;
- a holding structure connected with a first arm side and configured to hold the second arm;
- an X-ray tube and an X-ray detector installed on the second arm;
- and
- circuitry configured to control the first arm and the second arm to move independently of each other.
