20090022269 | RADIATION IMAGING APPARATUS - A radiation imaging apparatus that performs radiation imaging of a breast of a subject, which includes a table for laying down the subject; a receiving section that receives a breast of the subject laid on the table in a supine position; a radiation imaging section including a radiation emission unit and a radiation detection unit each located at a position opposing to each other being interposed by the breast of the subject received in the receiving section; and a drive unit that shifts the receiving section to a position suitable for imaging the breast of the subject. | 01-22-2009 |
20090116620 | RADIOGRAPHIC APPARATUS - A cover is elastically supported on a frame by elastic members. Engaging members are provided between the frame and the cover, and the cover is fixed to the frame by the engaging members as necessary. In the first state in which the movement of the cover is not restricted, the cover is movable with respect to the frame. In the second state, the cover is engaged with the frame and is fixed. | 05-07-2009 |
20100034346 | X-RAY IMAGING APPARATUS - An X-ray imaging apparatus includes an imaging unit which is rotatable relative to a platform about a shaft portion perpendicular to an X-ray detecting surface, so as to change the orientation relative to a subject. | 02-11-2010 |
20100034354 | X-RAY RADIOGRAPHING APPARATUS - A coupler is provided with a protrusion and a flange-shaped locking portion. A case of an image receptor houses an X-ray detector and an unlocking mechanism including a movable locking portion. The movable locking portion is made to protrude into a depression by the urging force of a locking assist spring. When the case is attached to the coupler, the movable locking portion locks the locking portion, thereby holding the case and the coupler together. The central axis of the cylindrical surface of the depression corresponds to substantially the center of the X-ray detection area of the X-ray detector. | 02-11-2010 |
20100054422 | X-RAY IMAGING APPARATUS - An X-ray imaging apparatus includes an X-ray tube, an X-ray generation control unit configured to control the X-ray tube with a controller and a power supply, and a holding unit configured to hold the X-ray tube. The holding unit includes two support legs to be spread at an arbitrary angle, and a connecting portion configured to turnably connect upper ends of the support legs. The holding unit holds the X-ray tube near the connecting portion. | 03-04-2010 |
20100243894 | RADIATION IMAGING APPARATUS - A radiation imaging apparatus includes a radiation detector that captures an image of a subject by detecting radiation transmitted through the subject and converting the radiation into an image signal; an electrical component processes the image signal; an interior housing accommodates the radiation detector and the electrical component therein; an exterior member surrounds the interior housing; an air circulating unit is disposed in the interior housing so as to circulate air inside the interior housing; and a cooling unit is disposed inside of the exterior member and outside of the interior housing so as to cool the interior housing. | 09-30-2010 |
20110299660 | X-RAY IMAGING APPARATUS - An X-ray imaging apparatus includes an imaging unit which is rotatable relative to a platform about a shaft portion perpendicular to an X-ray detecting surface, so as to change the orientation relative to a subject. | 12-08-2011 |
20120138798 | RADIATION IMAGING APPARATUS - Provided is a radiation imaging apparatus capable of housing a radiation detection unit configured to detect radiation. The radiation imaging apparatus includes a first cooling unit configured to cool a first heat generation portion of the radiation detection unit housed in the radiation imaging apparatus by a cooling medium in the radiation imaging apparatus, a second cooling unit configured to cool a second heat generation portion of the radiation detection unit housed in the radiation imaging unit, which is larger in amount of generated heat than the first heat generation portion, by the cooling medium, and a discharge port formed in a position nearer to the second heat generation portion than to the first heat generation portion and configured to discharge the cooling medium. | 06-07-2012 |
20140177804 | X-RAY IMAGING APPARATUS - An X-ray imaging apparatus includes a plurality of X-ray detection cassettes, and an information processing section configured to communicate with the plurality of X-ray detection cassettes and to process information concerning the plurality of X-ray detection cassettes. Each of the plurality of X-ray detection cassettes transmits/receives, to/from the information processing section, first information that corresponds to an image control signal and image data of the X-ray detection cassette and second information that is different from the first information. In a case where a time at which the first information is transmitted/received and a time at which the second information is transmitted/received coincide with each other, the first information is preferentially transmitted/received. | 06-26-2014 |
20140264061 | MOBILE RADIATION IMAGING APPARATUS, METHOD FOR CONTROLLING MOBILE RADIATION IMAGING APPARATUS, AND STORAGE MEDIUM - A mobile radiation imaging apparatus includes: an irradiation unit that emits radiation; a moving unit that moves with the irradiation unit; an imaging unit that takes an image of an object irradiated with radiation and is able to transmit the image via the wireless communication or the wired communication; an obtaining unit that obtains information indicating in which area the moving unit is located among a wired communication area, a wirelessly communicable area, and a switching area for switching between the wireless communication and the wired communication; and a control unit that switches the communication with the imaging unit depending on the obtained information. | 09-18-2014 |
