Summary:Disclosed is a liquid crystal X-ray detector capable of obtaining a complete X-ray image of a subject without having to combine smaller partial X-ray images while using an imaging lens much smaller than a liquid crystal layer. The liquid crystal X-ray detector includes a photoconductor unit including a photoconductive layer, a liquid crystal unit provided on the photoconductor unit and including a liquid crystal layer, a read beam output unit outputting a read beam toward the liquid crystal layer, and an imaging lens disposed on a light path in front of the liquid crystal layer. The read beam output unit emits scattered or plane light. The imaging lens has a long axis length that is equal to or smaller than one half of the long axis length of the liquid crystal layer.
