    Abstract: An image processing apparatus includes: an acquisition unit that acquires a radiographic image generated by a radiation detector irradiated with radiation from a radiography apparatus including the radiation detector in which plural pixels, each of which includes a conversion element that generates a larger amount of charge as it is irradiated with a larger amount of radiation, are arranged; and a correction unit that corrects scattered ray components caused by scattered rays of the radiation included in the radiographic image, using correction data for correcting scattered rays which is associated with each of plural regions in the radiographic image.

    Abstract: A radiation image capturing system capable of improving image quality of a radiation image is provided. A position of a joint of a grid is determined in consideration of displacement of an angle of incidence of radiation on a grid unit and a radiation detector group, and a joint image caused by the joint of the grid is prevented from being included in a search range of a position of a boundary in the radiation image captured by the radiation detector. The joint of the grid is provided in a position away ±(y1+2×y2)×tanβ or more from a position of a step of the radiation detector.

    Abstract: In the radiographic imaging device, a portion of a second effective imaging region at a first side or a second side of a sensor unit of a second radiation detection panel, and a portion of a first effective imaging region at a third side or a fourth side of the sensor unit of a first radiation detection panel, are overlapped in a radiation irradiating direction. A portion of a second effective imaging region at the third side or the fourth side of the sensor unit of the second radiation detection panel, and a portion of a third effective imaging region at the third side or the fourth side of the sensor unit of the third radiation detection panel, are overlapped in the radiation irradiating direction. The second radiation detection panel is disposed at a side opposite the radiation irradiating section side of the first radiation detection panel and the third radiation detection panel.

    Abstract: An FPD detects an X-ray image of an object. The FPD includes a plurality of pixels arranged in its image capturing field. Each pixel receives X-rays emitted from an X-ray source, and outputs a pixel value in accordance with an X-ray dose applied thereto. A pixel determiner determines a minimum-value pixel out of the pixels based on the pixel values of the pixels. The minimum-value pixel is a pixel whose pixel value is the lowest. The pixel determiner sets the minimum-value pixel as an exposure control pixel. A comparator compares a first integrated value, which is an integrated value of the pixel values of the minimum-value pixel, with a predetermined first threshold value. The comparator performs X-ray emission control such that, when the first integrated value has reached the first threshold value, the X-ray source stops emitting the X-rays.

    Abstract: A radiography system includes a radiography apparatus including two radiation detectors and a console that corrects a ratio of pixel values in a region, which corresponds to a soft tissue of a subject and is a corresponding region of radiographic images generated by the two radiation detectors irradiated with radiations having different energy levels, on the basis of correction data corresponding to a body thickness, and derives the bone density of the subject on the basis of a difference between a ratio of pixel values in a region corresponding to a bone tissue of the subject and the corrected ratio of the pixel values.
