20090078878 | Radiation imaging cassette - A radiation imaging cassette is provided with two types of communicating means within a housing. One is a wireless communicating means for communicating wirelessly with an imaging control means, and the other is a wired communicating means for communicating with the imaging control means. A metal detecting sensor for detecting metal in the periphery of the housing is also provided. A control section ceases the operation of the wireless communicating means and causes the radiation imaging cassette to communicate with imaging control means using the wired communication means, in response to detection of metal by the metal detecting sensor. Thereby, imaging operations are enabled to be performed safely even in cases that patients with pacemakers are in the vicinity of the radiation imaging cassette. | 03-26-2009 |
20090084962 | Radiation imaging apparatus - The signal strength of communications of a cassette transmitter/receiver is set to be lower during transmission of confirmation image signals, that is, during readout of image signals from a radiation detector, than the signal strength of communications of the cassette transmitter/receiver at times other than during readout of image signals. This suppresses adverse influence imparted onto the image signals by wireless communication, and reduces the amount of noise generated in the image signals. | 04-02-2009 |
20090084964 | Radiation imaging apparatus - A radiation imaging system is equipped with a radiation imaging apparatus and a control apparatus. The radiation imaging apparatus reads out image signals from a radiation detecting section that detects radiation which has passed through a subject, and outputs the read out image signals as wireless signals. The control apparatus outputs predetermined control signals to the radiation imaging apparatus as wireless signals. A second wireless communicating section of the control apparatus decreases the signal strength of communications to be lower during readout of the image signals than at times other than during readout of image signals. | 04-02-2009 |
