    Abstract: An imaging apparatus including an imaging table having an imaging surface; a compression member for putting a breast disposed on the imaging surface into a compressed state; an ultrasound unit that captures an ultrasound image of the breast put into the compressed state by the compression member, from an upper surface side of the compression member opposite to a contact surface with the breast; a first drive mechanism that moves the ultrasound unit between at least two states of an approach state in which the ultrasound unit approaches an upper surface, and a separation state in which the ultrasound unit is separated from the upper surface as compared to the approach state; and a second drive mechanism that moves the ultrasound unit put into the separation state by the first drive mechanism, in a plane direction of the upper surface.

    Abstract: A radiation irradiation device includes a device main body that irradiates a subject with radiation; and a spacing ensuring unit that is a member extending from the device main body in an emission direction of the radiation to ensure a spacing between the subject and the device main body and is switchable between an unfolded state in which a length extending from the device main body is a predetermined length and a storage state in which a length from the device main body is shorter than the predetermined length with a displacement of at least a part of a movable portion, in which the movable portion is biased in a direction in which the spacing ensuring unit switches from the storage state to the unfolded state.

    Abstract: A mammography apparatus includes: an imaging table; a radiation source; a compression plate that compresses the breast and is movable between the radiation source and the imaging table; a projector that includes a display displaying an image including first information projected onto a first surface facing the radiation source on the imaging table and second information projected onto a second surface facing the radiation source on the compression plate, and a projection optical system, in which a focus of the projection optical system is adjusted in accordance with a projection distance to the first surface; and a processor that is configured to control the display and change at least one of a display size or a display position of the second information in the image on an image display surface of the display in accordance with movement of the compression plate having the second surface independently of the first information.
