Abstract

See full text

In one embodiment, an X-ray diagnostic apparatus includes: an X-ray generator; a current measurement circuit; a display; and processing circuitry. The X-ray generator includes: a filament connected to a cathode of an X-ray tube and configured to emit electrons; a target connected to an anode of the X-ray tube and configured to generate X-rays by receiving the electrons; and a grid configured to adjust an electric potential gradient around the filament. The current measurement circuit measures an electric current flowing between an electrode of the grid and a common electrode of the filament. The processing circuitry calculates an index related to a lifetime of the filament on the basis of a measurement value of the electric current, and causes the display to display the index.
