This invention provides a subject support device with a highly maneuverable top plate and an X-ray imaging apparatus with such subject support device. A subject support device comprises a top plate for a subject to lie on, and a pedestal base which cantilevers the top plate in a horizontally extendable manner, and a levelness maintaining unit which adjusts the posture of the pedestal base to maintain the levelness of a part for supporting the top plate. The levelness maintaining unit includes a detector which detects the levelness of the part for supporting the top plate, a control circuit which outputs a control signal according to a detection signal from the detector, and an actuator which changes the posture of the pedestal base according to a control signal from the control circuit.
