When performing an offset correction, without lowering an image quality of the radiographed image data, a prompt radiographing is realized. Hence, a memory 105 stores a first image data for offset correction generated by performing an interlace scanning of the driving lines of odd rows only in a driving circuit unit 103. A memory 106 stores a second image data for offset correction generated by performing the interlace scanning of the driving lines of even row only in the driving circuit unit 103. A processing unit 108 synthesizes the first image data for offset correction and the second image data for offset correction, thereby to generate an image data for offset correction of one frame portion, and an arithmetic operation unit 109 performs an arithmetic operation processing on the radiation image data stored in a memory 107 by using the image data for offset correction of one frame portion synthesized and generated, thereby to perform the offset correction of the radiation image data.

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.
