    摘要: A radiation imaging apparatus is capable of taking a moving picture by acquisition by a reading circuit of a plurality of radiation image signals on the basis of a plurality of successive times of irradiation of a radiation detector with radiation rays. The radiation detector has a two-dimensional array of pixels. In a period between a start of an n-th time of irradiation with radiation rays and a start of an (n+1)-th time of irradiation with radiation rays, where n is a natural number, a controller switches an operation status of an analog-to-digital converter that converts electric signals read by the reading circuit into digital signals so that power consumption of the analog-to-digital converter is reduced.

    摘要: At least one exemplary embodiment is directed to a radiography apparatus configured to have an offset reading period, where during the offset reading period an offset reading operation is performed without illumination by radiation (e.g., X-rays). The offset reading period can be different from a radiation (e.g., X-ray) reading period in timings of applying a gate pulse. During the offset reading period, a pixel addition can be performed such that the switching elements corresponding to two or more lines are concurrently turned on-off thus reducing the offset reading period.
