Abstract
A radiation image capturing apparatus maintains previous image capturing position data stored in an image capturing position data storage unitof a control unitwhen a setting of a reference position of a long-length imaging region and the number of images to be captured are not changed. On the other hand, the radiation image capturing apparatus clears the previous image capturing position data stored in the image capturing position data storage unitof the control unitwhen either a setting of a reference position of a long-length imaging region or the number of images to be captured is changed. Then, the control unittemporarily prohibits X-ray image capturing, and a warning display unitcauses a display unitto display a display prompting input of image capturing position data for subsequent long-length image capturing. This display is kept displayed until an operator inputs image capturing position data for subsequent long-length image capturing. When an operator inputs image capturing position data for the subsequent long-length image capturing and the data is stored in the image capturing position data storage unitof the control unit, the control unitreleases the prohibition of image capturing.
