A pattern inspection apparatus includes a light source configured to emit a pulsed light, a stage on which an inspection target workpiece is placed, a sensor, including a plurality of light receiving elements two-dimensionally arrayed, configured to capture a pattern image in a two-dimensional region of the inspection target workpiece which is irradiated with the pulsed light, by using the plurality of light receiving elements, and a comparing unit configured to compare data of the pattern image with predetermined reference pattern image data, wherein the stage moves to be shifted by a number of pixels, being the number of natural number times one pixel, between pulses of the pulsed light.
