    Abstract: An electronic cassette comprises a main battery which is detachably attached to a battery loading unit, and a sub-battery which supplies electricity to a bias power circuit and so on in substitution for the main battery. A power source selector changes the power source to the sub-battery from the main battery when it is judged that a replacement operation of the main battery is started. Since supply of the electricity to the bias power circuit is continued, and the bias voltage continues being applied to a photoelectric converter without a break, there is no need to perform a photoelectric conversion stabilizing process and an offset correction image detecting process after turning on of the main power. Therefore, a start-up time TR2 is largely shortened from a start-up time TR1.

    Abstract: An ultrasound diagnostic apparatus includes a head-mounted display that is mounted on a head of a user and has a camera unit configured to acquire a view image obtained by imaging a field of view in front of the user, and a puncture needle length calculation unit (46) that, in a case where at least a part of the puncture needle is imaged by the camera unit, recognizes the puncture needle by performing image analysis on the view image, and calculates a length of the puncture needle in the view image.

    Abstract: A center position of a female connector is located near to a rear surface of a housing compared with a center position of the housing in a thickness direction of the housing of an electronic cassette. An inclined surface, which is inclined relative to a side surface and the rear surface of the housing, is formed between the side surface and the rear surface. The female connector is formed on the inclined surface. Therefore, it is possible to attach an outer grid provided with a longer side panel to the housing, in comparison with the case where the center position of the female connector is made coincident with the center position of the housing in the thickness direction of the housing, without requiring any processing.

    Abstract: A derivation unit acquires imaging conditions corresponding to order information received by a receiving unit based on a table stored in a storage unit and sets the imaging conditions in a radiation source control unit. The radiation source control unit controls a radiation source based on the set imaging conditions such that a radiographic image is captured. An acquisition unit acquires the actual values of the imaging conditions from the radiation source control unit. The derivation unit derives virtual grid characteristics based on the actual values of the imaging conditions. An execution unit acquires a captured radiographic image through a detector control unit. The execution unit performs a virtual grid process for the acquired radiographic image based on the virtual grid characteristics derived by the derivation unit and the acquired imaging conditions to generate a radiographic image from which the influence of scattered radiation has been removed.
