Abstract:
A tomosynthesis imaging apparatus includes: a radiation detector having an imaging surface that detects radiation transmitted through an object and captures a projection image of the object; a radiation source that has a plurality of radiation tubes which emit the radiation to the imaging surface at different irradiation angles and selectively irradiates the object with the radiation from each of the plurality of radiation tubes; and a radiation source control unit that performs focal position control for switching between positions of focuses where the radiation is emitted for at least one of the plurality of radiation tubes to change the radiation irradiation angle of the radiation tube with respect to the imaging surface.
Abstract:
A radiography apparatus includes: a radiation detector having an imaging surface that detects radiation transmitted through an object and captures a projection image of the object; and a radiation source that has a plurality of radiation tubes which emit the radiation to the imaging surface at different irradiation angles and includes a plurality of units in which the plurality of radiation tubes are divided and accommodated.
Abstract:
An X-ray imaging system includes an X-ray imaging apparatus and an access controller, which controls communication access of the X-ray imaging apparatus having an electronic cassette for forming an X-ray image and wirelessly transmitting the X-ray image. Before the electronic cassette starts transmitting the X-ray image, a priority request signal for priority of the first radio communication channel to the electronic cassette over a portable terminal device of radio communication is received. Upon receiving the priority request signal, presence of the portable terminal device is checked, in which a radio communication channel of overlap of frequency on the first radio communication channel is used. In presence of the portable terminal device with the overlap, the portable terminal device is regulated in communication regulation while the electronic cassette transmits the X-ray image. Also, the X-ray imaging apparatus is communicable by use of a communication network in wireless communication connection.
Abstract:
The medical image processing apparatus includes a first processor, a second processor that executes image processing on a medical image in response to an instruction from the first processor, and a battery that supplies power to the first processor and the second processor. The second processor executes the image processing with a selected processing method among a plurality of processing methods that are different in amount of power consumption.
