    摘要: A moiré fringe difference detector detects a change in moiré fringes occurring in first and second differential phase images between actual radiography and preliminary radiography, and calculates a characteristic amount corresponding to the change. This characteristic amount is a period of an artifact occurring in a corrected differential phase image, which is obtained by subtracting the second differential phase image captured in the preliminary radiography from the first differential phase image captured in the actual radiography. A system controller compares this period with a view size of an X-ray image detector. When the period is smaller than the view size, a message to suggest re-execution of the preliminary radiography is displayed on a monitor. When the preliminary radiography is re-executed, a new second differential phase image obtained by the re-execution of the preliminary radiography is subtracted from the first differential phase image, to produce a new corrected differential phase image.

The first grating unit has a plurality of radiation shield units that shields the radiation emitted from the radiation source and a substrate on which the first radiation shield units are arranged and which enables the radiation emitted from the radiation source to penetrate therethrough. The grating pattern unit has a period that substantially coincides with a pattern period of a radiological image. The radiological image detector detects the radiological image masked by the grating pattern unit and has a plurality of pixels converting and accumulating the radiation into charges and a substrate. A thermal expansion coefficient of the substrate of the first grating unit is the substantially same as a thermal expansion coefficient of the substrate of the radiological image detector.

    摘要: An X-ray imaging system includes an X-ray source, first and second absorption gratings, and an FPD. The first absorption grating passes X-ray emitted from the X-ray source to form a G1 image. The second absorption grating modulates intensity of the G1 image at each of relative positions to form two or more fringe images. The relative positions differ in phase with respect to a period pattern of the G1 image. The FPD detects two or more frames of image data of the fringe images. A defective pixel detector reads two or more frames of image data stored in a memory and obtains a characteristic value of an intensity modulated signal on a pixel-by-pixel basis based on the read image data. The defective pixel detector detects a defective pixel based on the characteristic value obtained.

    摘要: A radiological image detection apparatus includes a first grating unit, a grating pattern unit, a radiological image detector, and an anti-scatter grating. The grating pattern unit has a period that substantially coincides with a pattern period of a radiological image formed by radiation having passed through the first grating unit. The radiological image detector detects the radiological image masked by the grating pattern unit. The anti-scatter grating is arranged on a path of the radiation incident onto the radiological image detector and removes scattered radiation. A smoothing process is performed for at least one of a surface and a backside of the anti-scatter grating intersecting with a traveling direction of the radiation.
