    Abstract: A photoacoustic measurement device reducing artifacts caused by photoacoustic waves generated at a surface portion of a subject on which measurement light is incident, and a signal processing method thereof are obtained. A photoacoustic measurement device includes region discrimination unit that discriminates an artifact generation region and an artifact non-generation region in a photoacoustic image on the basis of a positional relationship between a light emitting portion and an acoustic wave detection portion, and filter unit that performs a first filtering process on a first photoacoustic wave detection signal corresponding to a photoacoustic image of the artifact non-generation region and performs a second filtering process on a second photoacoustic wave detection signal corresponding to a photoacoustic image of the artifact generation region. The second filtering process includes further reducing the photoacoustic wave detection signal in a frequency range lower than a predetermined frequency as compared with the first filtering process.

    Abstract: In a photoacoustic measurement apparatus and a probe, artifacts due to photoacoustic waves generated in a surface portion of a subject are reduced without increasing the repetition period of photoacoustic measurement. A measurement light emitting unit emits measurement light toward a subject. An acoustic wave detector detects photoacoustic waves generated within the subject due to the measurement light. A correction light source emits correction light toward the subject. A light intensity detector detects reflected light generated by reflection of the correction light, which is emitted toward the subject, from the subject. In a probe, the correction light source and the light intensity detector are disposed between the measurement light emitting unit and the acoustic wave detector.

    Abstract: An X-ray imaging apparatus comprises a first grid, a second grid, and an X-ray image detector. The first grid passes X-rays emitted from an X-ray source and produces a first periodic pattern image. The second grid opposes the first grid. The second grid partly blocks the first periodic pattern image and produces a second periodic pattern image with moiré fringes. The X-ray image detector detects the second periodic pattern image and produces image data. The X-ray image detector has pixels arranged in two dimensions in X and Y directions. The M pixels arranged in the Y direction form one group. The group is shifted in the Y direction by the number of the pixels less than M each time. A phase of an intensity modulated signal, composed of pixel values of the pixels in the each shifted group, is calculated. Thereby a differential phase image is produced.
