    Abstract: An X-ray tube device incorporates a mono-tank, and includes a gripping portion that is provided to protrude from a main body in a side surface and supports the main body by gripping. In a case where the main body is divided into two portions of a center-of-gravity-side portion including the center of gravity of the main body and a non-center-of-gravity-side portion not including the center of gravity using a plane passing through the center of the main body and an irradiation direction of X-rays, the gripping portion is in the center-of-gravity-side portion, and the gripping portion is not in the non-center-of-gravity-side portion.

    Abstract: The present disclosure provides a radiation detection system, a radiation output device, and a radiation detection device. The radiation detection system includes a radiation output device having an output control unit, and a radiation detection device having a recognition unit that recognizes whether radiation has been output from the radiation output device on the basis of a radiation detection signal. The output control unit causes radiation to be output at a first intensity from a time point of the start of outputting of radiation, and then causes the radiation to be output at a second intensity. The first intensity is an intensity higher than the second intensity and satisfying a threshold value condition set in advance in the recognition unit. The recognition unit recognizes that a detection signal of the radiation with the first intensity satisfies the threshold value condition, thereby recognizing the start of outputting of the radiation.

    Abstract: A flat panel detector has pixels for obtaining image signals and detective pixels for detecting the amount of incident x-rays. A signal processing circuit is of a pipeline-type, wherein first and second buffer memories are connected to the output of an A/D converter. In a dose detecting operation, the signal processing circuit repeats primary cycles alternately with secondary cycles of a shorter length than the primary cycles. In the primary cycle, a dose detection signal based on electric charges from the detective pixels is input in the first buffer memory and, simultaneously, a dummy signal is output from the second buffer memory. In secondary cycle, the dose detection signal is output from the first buffer memory and, simultaneously, a second dummy signal is input in the second buffer memory. On the basis of the dose detection signals, a start-of-radiation detector detects the start of x-ray radiation.

    Abstract: The radiation-irradiation device includes: a radiation generating unit that generates radiation; a collimator unit that controls an irradiation range to be irradiated with the radiation generated by the radiation generating unit; and an interval ensuring unit that includes a contact member being in contact with a subject to be irradiated with the radiation in a case in which a distance between the radiation generating unit and the subject is shorter than a preset distance, and ensures an interval between the radiation generating unit and the subject. The interval ensuring unit is detachably mounted on the collimator unit and is capable of being mounted at different rotational positions about an axis, which passes through a center of a diaphragm of the collimator unit and extends in the direction of an optical axis of the radiation, as a central axis.

    Abstract: A radiation irradiation detection system includes a radiation generation apparatus that includes a radiation generation unit, an emission control unit controlling emission of the radiation, and an exposure switch unit receiving a radiation irradiation instruction and a radiation stoppage instruction, and a radiation detection apparatus that includes a radiation detector detecting the radiation transmitted through a subject, and a detection control unit controlling the radiation detector, and the emission control unit starts emission of the radiation in a case where the emission permitting signal output from the detection control unit is received while the exposure switch unit is receiving the radiation irradiation instruction, continuously performs emission of the radiation regardless of a reception state of the emission permitting signal in a preset emission period after the radiation starts to be emitted, and stops emission of the radiation in a case where the instruction reception unit receives the radiation stoppage instruction.

    Abstract: A radiography apparatus includes: a radiation detector that includes a plurality of pixels, each of which includes a thin film transistor and which are two-dimensionally arranged, and data lines through which charge accumulated in the connected pixels is transmitted as an electric signal; and a first sample-and-hold unit and a second sample-and-hold unit that sample and hold the electric signal transmitted through the data line. In a case in which the charge accumulated in the pixel is read out, the radiography apparatus performs control such that the thin film transistor is turned off and the first sample-and-hold unit samples and holds a first electric signal transmitted through the data line; and the thin film transistor is turned on and the second sample-and-hold unit samples and holds a second electric signal transmitted through the data line.
