Abstract:
In this breast thickness measurement device and breast thickness measurement method, radiation is radiated from a plurality of different angles to a breast that is in a compressed state, a plurality of image data are generated by means of a radiation detector, and a plurality of tomographic images are generated by reconfiguring on the basis of each image datum after same has been generated. In each tomographic image, the thickness of the compressed breast is calculated on the basis of a tomographic image in which the focal point matches a first marker and a tomographic image in which the focal point matches a second marker.
Abstract:
A control device including: a control unit that, in a case in which continuous imaging that irradiates a breast of a subject with radiation emitted from a radiation source to capture a radiographic image in a compressed state in which the breast is compressed against an imaging table by a compression member and then captures an ultrasound image of the breast in the compressed state is performed, performs control to locate the radiation source at a non-facing position where the radiation source and the imaging table do not face each other.
Abstract:
A medical imaging device that includes: a press plate that presses a breast; an emitter that radiates radiation onto the breast; an acquisition section that acquires various information indicating a type of an acoustic matching member inserted between the press plate and the breast in cases in which ultrasound imaging of the breast is performed; and a setting section that sets a tube voltage of the emitter to a first tube voltage, in cases in which radiographic imaging of the breast is performed alone, and that sets the tube voltage of the emitter to a second tube voltage that is different from the first tube voltage, by employing the various information acquired by the acquisition section, in cases in which radiographic imaging and ultrasound imaging of the breast are performed consecutively with the acoustic matching member still inserted.

Abstract:
A common region derivation unit derives a common region common to at least some of a plurality of projection images which correspond to a plurality of radiation source positions, respectively, and are acquired by directing an imaging apparatus to perform tomosynthesis imaging. In a case in which a width of the common region in a movement direction of a radiation source is equal to or greater than a predetermined threshold value, an image acquisition unit directs the imaging apparatus to perform the tomosynthesis imaging to acquire the plurality of projection images.

Abstract:
A mammography apparatus includes: a compression plate that compresses a breast; a moving unit that moves the compression plate in a compression direction in which the breast is compressed and a decompression direction in which the breast is decompressed; a radiation source that emits radiation; and a control unit that controls the moving unit such that the compression plate is moved to a first position in the compression direction, is moved to a second position where the position of the compression plate is changed from the first position by a predetermined variation or more in the decompression direction, and is stopped and performs control such that the radiation is emitted from the radiation source to the breast.
Abstract:
An acoustic matching member configured to be disposed between a breast placed on an imaging table and a compression plate disposed opposite to the imaging table is proposed. The acoustic matching member includes a protruding portion that protrudes toward the imaging table and that is provided in an end portion on a deepest side when viewed from a chest wall side of a subject in a case of compressing a breast of the subject in contact with the compression plate.
Abstract:
A tomographic image generation device includes a projection image acquisition section configured to acquire plural projection images obtained by radiating radiation onto a breast in sequence from plural radiation angles and by performing imaging at each of the plural radiation angles; a mammary gland density acquisition section configured to acquire a mammary gland density of the breast; a derivation section configured to derive a slice thickness that decreases as the mammary gland density acquired by the mammary gland density acquisition section increases; and a generation section configured to generate a tomographic image at the slice thickness derived by the derivation section based on the plural projection images acquired by the projection image acquisition section.
Abstract:
