A radiation image read-out and reproducing apparatus wherein radiation image read-out and reproduction are carried by use of the same scanning system in the same apparatus. The light beam scanning section includes a read-out main scanning means and a reproducing main scanning means. The light source as well as the light deflector of the read-out main scanning means are the same as the light source and light deflector of the reproducing main scanning means. Further, the means for conveying the stimulable phosphor sheet for read-out and for conveying the recording sheet for reproducing are common to each other. A beam diameter adjusting means adjusts the beam diameter of the light beam between a position on the stimulable phosphor sheet and a position on the recording sheet by moving the beam diameter adjusting means into or away from an optical path of the light beam depending upon whether the light beam scans the stimulable phosphor sheet or the recorded sheet. Also included is an automatic developing machine for carrying out development on the recording sheet carrying the radiation image reproduced thereon.

A cathode-ray tube image recording device for recording images on a photosensitive thermal development recording medium which may have a reduced sensitivity due to time deterioration. An image of a density wedge is exposed and developed then sensed to determine the sensitivity of the recording medium. The sensing operation produces a density identification step number which is used to set one or both of the brightness and light emission time of the cathode-ray tube in accordance with a predetermined characteristic curve or function. A switchable resistor circuit or read-only memory may be used for applying the characteristic function.
