A radiation imaging system includes a hardware processor. The hardware processor calculates an exposure index representative value of a radiation image based on the radiation image including a plurality of frame images. The hardware processor is capable of setting a target value of an exposure index differently for each imaging mode.

Radiation imaging system and storage medium

A radiographic image capturing device connectable to a plurality of types of radiographic image capturing control devices having different specifications, includes a hardware processor that controls an operation of the radiographic image capturing device based on information indicating specifications or a type of a radiographic image capturing control device connected to the radiographic image capturing device.

Radiographic image capturing device, radiographic image capturing system, control method, and control program

A radiography system includes an image former, a first determiner, and an operation controller. The image former performs serial radiography of repeatedly generating a frame that constitutes a video. The first determiner determines whether a next test action is the serial radiography. The operation controller makes the image former begin turning a switch element on/off in a same manner as a manner in the serial radiography before start of the next test action in a case where the first determiner determines that the next test action is the serial radiography.

Radiography system

A radiation image capturing apparatus includes scan lines of 1to nlines, scan driving units, a controller, an OE signal line and a CPV signal line. The OE signal line is to input OE signal by which an ON voltage is applied to a scan line. The CPV signal line is to input CPV signal by which the scan line, to which the ON voltage is applied by the input of the OE signal, is shifted to a next scan line. To the scan driving units, the controller inputs the CPV signal to sequentially shift the scan line from the 1line to the nline, and inputs the OE signal to apply the ON voltage only when the scan line is a scan line of an effective pixel region from which image data is read.

Radiation image capturing apparatus

A radiation image capturing system includes the following. A radiation irradiating apparatus irradiates the radiation image capturing apparatus according to control by a generator. A control device transmits an external synchronizing signal to the radiation image capturing apparatus, transmits an irradiating request signal to the generator, and synchronizes the radiation image capturing apparatus with the radiation irradiating apparatus. When the external synchronizing signal is received, the radiation image capturing apparatus switches the control mode. After the control mode is switched, the radiation image capturing apparatus starts a readout process of the image data at a timing delayed a predetermined amount of time from a timing that the external synchronizing signal is received. The control device transmits the irradiating request signal to the generator at a timing delayed a predetermined amount of time from a timing that the irradiating request signal should be transmitted to the generator.

Radiation image capturing system

A radiographic image capturing apparatus includes: scanning and signal lines; a two-dimensional array of detecting elements defining a detecting part; a control unit that reads image data from all detecting elements in a reading area of the detecting part by repeating a cycle of a readout process at N-line intervals, wherein the scanning line subjected to the readout process is shifted every cycle, where N is an integral number of at least 1; and a communication unit for external communication. The control unit detects a radiation emission start of a radiation irradiating apparatus, and if the readout process starts with an N+1th or any subsequent scanning line and then starts with any of first to N+1th scanning lines in a certain cycle, the control unit transfers the image data read in the certain cycle as preview image data substantially concurrently with the readout process.

Radiographic image capturing apparatus and radiographic image capturing system

A radiation image capturing system includes a radiation image capturing apparatus, one or more radiation generation apparatuses and a calculation unit. The radiation image capturing apparatus includes a control unit which controls a scan driving unit and a readout integrated circuit of the radiation image capturing apparatus since before start of irradiation of the radiation image capturing apparatus and detects the start of the irradiation when data read out by the readout integrated circuit is equal to or more than a threshold. Before radiation image capturing, the calculation unit calculates a maximum body thickness for each of the radiation generation apparatuses on the basis of the data read out in the radiation image capturing apparatus irradiated by the radiation generation apparatus, the maximum body thickness up to which the control unit can detect the start of the irradiation through a subject.
