The X-ray detection apparatus is equipped with an X-ray irradiation unit, an X-ray detector, a movable collimator and a shield for blocking X-rays. The shield blocks X-rays, which are to enter the X-ray detector directly from the X-ray irradiation unit. The shield also blocks fluorescent X-rays and scattered X-rays generated by irradiation of the collimator with X-rays. In such a manner, it is possible to prevent X-rays other than fluorescent X-rays from the sample S from being detected by the X-ray detector. The shield is joined with the collimator, so that the collimator and the shield move as a unit. It is possible to locate the shield even in a downsized X-ray detection apparatus. |
