IMAGING APPARATUS AND SYSTEM USING CONTRAST MEDIUM

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an imaging apparatus which makes it possible to easily confirm whether or not scan start timing is appropriate by taking into consideration a contrast medium injection condition. SOLUTION: The imaging apparatus is an X-ray CT apparatus, wherein the timing after the injection of a contrast medium is started until scan is started is set corresponding to the contrast medium injection condition, the scan is performed for a part to which the contrast medium is injected at the set scan start timing and imaging is performed, and is provided with a display part for displaying scan condition display 11 indicating a scan condition including the scan start timing by a diagram together with contrast medium injection display 10 indicating the time change of the contrast medium injection condition by a diagram.
