In an X-ray CT apparatus having a multi-slice detector, the retrospective ECG (Electrocardiography) gating imaging is applied to helical scans. Discontinuity of projection data generated in the scans is interpolated using data at a heartbeat time phase in 180-degree opposite relation to reduce motion artifacts. Further, projection data at an arbitrary slicing position and in at arbitrary heartbeat time phase are formed utilizing continuous divided projection data obtained above, and by properly combining or gathering them, a tomogram of whole heart, a three-dimensional image thereof, and further, a three-dimensional cardiac moving image in heartbeat time phases with an arbitrary time interval can be continuously and smoothly created.
