1. An image acquisition system comprising:
a radiation source configured to output radiation toward an object;
a rotating stage configured to rotate the object around a rotation axis;
a radiation camera having an input surface to which the radiation transmitted through the object is input and an image sensor capable of TDI (time delay integration) control and configured to capture an image of the input radiation and output image data; and
an image processor configured to generate a radiographic image of the object at an imaging plane based on the image data,
wherein the radiation source has an axis that is parallel to the rotation axis,
an angle formed between the rotation axis of the rotating stage and a plane including the input surface of the radiation camera is set in accordance with an FOD which is a distance between the radiation source and an imaging plane in the object.
