Abstract: An X-ray imaging apparatus includes an X-ray source configured to generate X-rays, and to irradiate the X-rays; an imaging unit configured to photograph an object image; a controller configured to acquire object direction information from the object image, and to determine whether the object direction information corresponds to information about an irradiation direction of X-rays; and a user interface configured to output a warning if the object direction information does not correspond to the information about the irradiation direction of X-rays.
