A system for dental X-ray imaging includes an intra oral imaging plate. A tag is attached directly to the intra oral imaging plate. The tag attached directly to the intra oral imaging plate is configured to have tag information remotely read from the tag or the tag is configured to have tag information written to the tag. The tag information is configured to control a portion of the system adapted to perform at least one operation controlled by the tag information.

An N-M tomography system comprising: a carrier for the subject of an examination procedure; a plurality of detector heads; a carrier for the detector heads; and a detector positioning arrangement operable to position the detector heads during performance of a scan without interference or collision between adjacent detector heads to establish a variable bore size and configuration for the examination. Additionally, collimated detectors providing variable spatial resolution for SPECT imaging and which can also be used for PET imaging, whereby one set of detectors can be selectably used for either modality, or for both simultaneously.

Radiographic imaging system comprising an x-ray radiation source. Multiple radiographic imaging apparatuses, each including multiple radiation detecting elements, are arranged two-dimensionally, and configured to read charges generated in the radiation detecting elements as image data and transmit an image signal in response to a command. A console communicating with, controlling with a command the operation of, and receiving image signals from, the multiple radiographic imaging apparatuses and acquires multiple radiographing order information items indicating which of the multiple radiographic imaging apparatuses is to be used for conducting radiographing. Upon receiving the image signal from a first of the radiographic imaging apparatuses, the console determines from the multiple radiographing order information items a subsequent radiographing order item to be conducted by the first radiographic imaging apparatus, and sends a first command to the first radiographic imaging apparatus instructing it to conduct the subsequent radiographing order item.

A condition determination device includes a hardware processor that: acquires sensor information obtained by detecting information regarding a subject to be radiographed by using a sensor and order information regarding a radiographing order; and determines a radiographing condition by inputting the sensor information and the order information to a trained identifier.

A radiographic imaging system includes a radiographic detector having a scanning device to obtain patient identifying information. The detector is programmed to display the patient identifying information in human readable form and to access additional information about the patient stored in networked databases.

A radiation imaging system includes a radiation source and a notifying unit. The radiation source is for still image shooting and moving image shooting performed by the radiation imaging system to obtain image data of a subject. The notifying unit notifies whether a type of imaging to be performed is the still image shooting or the moving image shooting in a mode in which the type is instinctively recognizable by at least one of sense of sight, sense of hearing, and sense of touch.

The present invention relates to a measurement and data communication device (10) for use in or with an intraoral dental radiology system (100) comprising: an x-ray data management unit (20) having a first communication means (21) for retrieving at least x-ray exposure data, and a processing means (22) for processing at least the retrieved data; an intraoral x-ray generation unit 30) having an x-ray source (31) for exposing at least part of a patient jaw with x-rays; and an intraoral x-ray acquisition unit (40) having a first x-ray sensor (41) for acquiring x-ray image data of at least part of the patient jaw; said device (10) characterized by comprising: a measurement unit (11) for measuring features related to the x-rays used for exposing at least part of the patient, wherein the measurement unit (11) is arranged between the x-ray source (31) and the patient; and a second communication means (12) for transmitting the x-ray exposure data which includes the measured features to the x-ray data management unit (20).

A radiographic imaging system includes an irradiating apparatus, a first clock, a radiographic imaging apparatus, a second clock and a hardware processor. The irradiating apparatus generates radiation. The first clock keeps time and works with the irradiating apparatus. The radiographic imaging apparatus generates image data based on received radiation. The second clock keeps time and works with the radiographic imaging apparatus. The hardware processor (i) obtains a clock value of the first clock at a predetermined time point and a clock value of the second clock at the predetermined time point respectively as first clock information and second clock information, (ii) makes a determination as to whether a specific condition is met based on the obtained first clock information and the obtained second clock information, and (iii) in response to the specific condition being met, performs a specific output.
