    摘要: A correction process is performed using different gain correction signals (GSA, GSB) in accordance with radiographic modes (moving image radiographic mode/still image radiographic mode) set in an X-ray imaging apparatus, respectively. This makes it possible to acquire an image with decreased correction errors even when the X-ray imaging apparatus is configured using an imaging unit having different gain characteristics in the still image radiographic mode and moving image radiographic mode.

    摘要: A radiography apparatus includes a conversion unit having conversion elements arranged in a row-column pattern. In an object-image reading operation, the conversion unit detects an object image based on illuminated radiations, and a drive circuit drives the conversion unit so as to allow the conversion unit to output a signal based on the object image. In an offset-data reading operation, the conversion unit detects offset data in a period when the radiations are not illuminating, and the drive circuit drives so as to allow the conversion unit to output a signal based on the offset data. When the numbers of lines driven concurrently in the object-image reading operation is represented by n (equal to 1 or greater) and the numbers of lines driven concurrently in offset-data reading operation is represented by m, the drive circuit controls the conversion unit so as to satisfy the expression: n

    摘要: An idling time period after applying a bias to a conversion element until a start of an accumulation of the conversion element for deriving an image and an accumulation period from the start of the accumulation to a termination of the accumulation are measured. An offset correction of the image is conducted by using a dark current accumulation charge quantity in the accumulation calculated based on the measured idling time period and accumulation period and stored dark current response characteristics. Thus, even just after applying the bias to the conversion element, the offset correction can be properly conducted. An imaging apparatus which can execute a good radiographing without increasing costs and a size even just after applying the bias to the conversion element is provided.
