In a method of recognizing an irradiation field, image signals at respective positions on a recording medium are detected based on image information detected from the recording medium, and X and Y axis are set along two adjacent sides of a contour of a rectangular irradiation field on the recording medium. The image signals are added up in the X and Y axis directions respectively, and Y axis positions at which levels of added-up signals in the X axis direction are equal to a threshold value and X axis positions at which levels of added-up signals in the Y axis direction are equal to the threshold value are detected. A region surrounded by straight lines passing through these positions along the X and Y axes is recognized as the irradiation field. In the method of adjusting image processing conditions, the image processing conditions are adjusted based on the image information inside of the irradiation field thus recognized.

A radiation image read-out apparatus comprises a light shielding material removal section for removing a light shielding material by dissolution or separation from a stimulable phosphor sheet comprising a stimulable phosphor layer and the light shielding material which is provided at least on a surface on the stimulable phosphor layer side and which is removable by dissolution in a solvent or by physical separation, the stimulable phosphor sheet carrying a radiation image stored on the stimulable phosphor layer. A read-out section is provided for reading out the radiation image by exposing the stimulable phosphor sheet, from which the light shielding material has been removed, to stimulating rays which cause the stimulable phosphor sheet to emit light in proportion to the stored radiation energy, and photoelectrically detecting the emitted light.

A built-in type radiation image and read-out apparatus comprises a main unit having a circulation and conveyance means for repeatedly conveying stimulable phosphor sheets through an image recording section, an image read-out section and an erasing section. A radiation source is provided separately from the main unit and the radiation source and the image recording section of the main unit can be moved up and down while maintaining a prescribed positional relation between them.

In a radiation image read-out system wherein a radiation image recorded on a recording medium through an irradiation field stop is read out and the read-out image signals are subjected to an image processing, the image processing conditions are determined or adjusted based on the histogram of the image signals. In a radiation image read-out system wherein a radiation image is recorded on a recording medium through an irradiation field stop and preliminary read-out is conducted prior to final read-out, and the image signals read out by the final read-out are subjected to an image processing, final read-out conditions and/or image processing conditions are determined or adjusted based on the histogram of the image signals obtained by the preliminary read-out. In both cases, prospective edge point signals, which are considered to be signals representing edge portions of an irradiation field on the stimulable phosphor sheet, are detected from the image signals. A region of a level lower than a characteristic value representing the prospective edge point signals is removed from the histogram, and the final read-out conditions and/or the image processing conditions are adjusted based on the histogram outside of the lower level region.

In a radiation image read-out method wherein preliminary read-out is conducted prior to final read-out for adjusting final read-out conditions and/or image processing conditions for a radiation image stored on a stimulable phosphor sheet, a histogram of preliminary read-out image signals obtained by the preliminary read-out is created. A characteristic value of the preliminary read-out image signals within a region at least outside of a sharp peak region arising near the maximum signal value and/or the minimum signal value in the histogram is calculated. The final read-out conditions and/or the image processing conditions are adjusted based on the characteristic value.

Markers for providing reference points or lines are recorded together with radiation images on stimulable phosphor sheets in a position fixed with respect to the radiation images. The stimulable phosphor sheets are scanned with stimulating rays, and the spatial coordinates of reference points or lines are detected from digital data of the images detected from light emitted from the stimulable phosphor sheets. Rotation and shift among the radiation images are calculated based on the reference points or lines. One of the radiation images is rotated on the digital data when positional deviation exists and moved on the digital data when positional deviation exists. Subtraction of the image data is then conducted among the corresponding picture elements of the radiation images to extract an image of a specific portion of the radiation images.

By providing a network photograph service, prompt service can be provided to a customer without losing the advantages of easier understanding of where to access when placing an order and easier collective data management. A service center receiving an order of a printing service, and a minilab or a special laboratory spread across a plurality of places, are able to communicate through a network. A center server in the service center selects and assigns which photo-finishing laboratory will print the ordered picture, in response to order information transferred from a customer via the network. Thus, the printing processing can be carried out by a photo-finishing laboratory specified by the customer, instead of at the center server.

An image-capturing system having a function of allowing the user to easily find the position of an image-capturing device is provided. An image-capturing system includes: an image-capturing unit; an image storage unit for storing a camera position image taken toward the image-capturing unit from an image-capturing region taken by the image-capturing unit; and a remote control unit which allows the user to perform operation for remote control of the image-capturing unit. With such an arrangement, the remote control unit includes a reception unit for receiving the camera position image stored in the image storage unit, and a display unit for displaying the camera position image received by the reception unit. The remote control unit further includes an image-capturing request unit for making a request to the image-capturing unit for image capturing.

A workload on a user for selecting and arranging images used for album generation is reduced. Images necessary for generating an album are photographed and image data sets representing the images and accompanying information thereof are recorded in a recording medium. Data reading means reads the image data sets and the accompanying information. A template to be used for album generation is also read from template storing means. The images can be inserted in image insertion areas of the template in photographing order. With reference to the accompanying information, the images are inserted in the image insertion areas in photographing order and composite image data are generated. A printer prints the composite image data as the album.
