Abstract:
A radiography apparatus includes a radiation emitting device that irradiates a subject with radiation, a camera that captures an image of the subject to acquire a captured image of the subject, and a radiation detector that detects the radiation transmitted through the subject and generates a radiographic image of the subject. The driving state of at least one of the radiation emitting device or the radiation detector is controlled on the basis of whether the radiation detector is included in the captured image.
Abstract:
A radiation irradiation device includes a radiation generating part that generates radiation; an arm part having the radiation generating part attached to one end thereof; a main body part having the other end of the arm part connected thereto; an electric power supply part provided at the main body part; and a cable part for electrically connecting the power supply part and the radiation part.
