An X-ray CT scanner comprises a plurality of X-ray generators which are arranged radially on a circle concentric with an object for measurement and each consists of a cathode electrode, an anode electrode constituting a target and a grid between the cathode and anode electrodes. For X-ray tomography, X-rays are projected onto the objects from the circle concentric therewith by sequentially temporarily removing a bias voltage applied to the grids of the respective X-ray generators for suppressing an electron beam directed from the cathode electrode to the anode electrode of each X-ray generator.
