Radiographing system, method of controlling radiographing system, and recording medium of computer program
A radiographing system includes a plurality of radiation imaging apparatuses and a composition processing unit which composites a plurality of radiation images acquired from the plurality of radiation imaging apparatuses to generate a long-length image. Each of the radiation imaging apparatuses includes a radiation detecting panel which has a plurality of pixels arrayed in a two-dimensional matrix and converts radiated radiation into an image signal, and a position acquiring unit which acquires positional information by communicating with an external apparatus. A position deciding unit decides an order, in which the plurality of radiation images to be composited by the composition processing unit are composited, based on the positional information acquired by the position acquiring unit.
Bolus Imaging

X-ray imaging apparatus and X-ray imaging system
An X-ray imaging apparatus displays a bone or soft tissue image of an X-ray image, which corresponds to a region selected by a user, thereby reducing a diagnosis time. In addition, an X-ray imaging system transmits a first energy X-ray image and a second energy X-ray image to a central image management system, and a user control apparatus receives the images from the central image management system and displays a bone or soft tissue image corresponding to the selected region, thereby reducing burden imposed on server capacity of the central image management system as well as reducing a diagnosis time.
Method for making radiographs with direct radiographic panels
A method for performing a job list of radiographic recordings indicated in a radiographic information systems includes communicating the job list to a mobile apparatus, e.g. a smartphone, whereby, in a first step, a peer-to-peer communication is set up between the radiographic information system and the mobile apparatus by a Near Field Communication technique, whereupon the job list is transmitted to the mobile apparatus via a WIFI peer-to-peer communication. A radiographer then completes the job list by using, inter alia, a self-triggering direct radiographic panel and a radiographic generator.
Exposure management system
An exposure management system according to an embodiment includes a processing circuitry. The processing circuitry is configured to calculate a deviation index related to a difference between a target exposure index indicating an index of an exposure value that is set as a target of an X-ray image taking process and an image-taking-period exposure index indicating an index of an exposure value observed during the X-ray image taking process. The processing circuitry is configured to control so as to cause a display device to display history information from a predetermined time period indicating at least one selected from between image-taking-period exposure indices and deviation indices.
Radiation detection apparatus, radiation imaging system, and manufacturing method
A radiation detection apparatus includes a sensor base, a sensor substrate supported by the sensor base and configured to output signals from a plurality of pixels for radiation detection, a peripheral member arranged on a periphery of a side surface of the sensor substrate separately from the sensor substrate, supported by the sensor base, and configured not to output the signal for the radiation detection, and a scintillator layer configured to continuously cover the sensor substrate and the peripheral member.
RADIATION EMITTING DEVICE, METHOD FOR CONTROLLING RADIATION EMITTING DEVICE, AND PROGRAM
