Abstract:
Provided is a radiographic apparatus configured to obtain an animated image of a fluoroscopic image, and thereafter complete fluoroscopy temporarily for taking a static image or the animated image for diagnosis, the radiographic apparatus allowing taking an image of a subject with suitable brightness. The apparatus determines a control condition (radiography condition) of an X-ray tube for taking the static image in accordance with the control condition of the X-ray tube upon obtaining the fluoroscopic image. With the disclosure, brightness of the subject contained in the fluoroscopic image is also regarded upon determination of the radiography condition. This achieves obtaining the suitable radiography condition even when obtaining the animated image stops before radiation has appropriate intensity during obtaining a live image. Accordingly, the apparatus in the disclosure allows obtaining a clear image with appropriate exposure.
