Abstract: The X-ray imaging apparatus includes: a main power supply operation unit for switching ON/OFF of power supply to the X-ray imaging apparatus; a braking unit for decelerating a rotation speed of the anode to a predetermined braking speed lower than a resonance range which is a rotation speed of the anode at which resonance occurs in the X-ray tube; and a non-braking stop prediction unit configured to detect a predetermined situation in which a non-braking stop state is predicted, the non-braking stop state being a state in which the main power supply operation unit is operated to be turned to an OFF state without decelerating the rotating anode by the braking unit. The non-braking stop prediction unit activates the braking unit by detecting the predetermined situation to decrease the rotation speed of the anode to the braking speed.

Abstract: A radiation image capturing apparatus maintains previous image capturing position data stored in an image capturing position data storage unit 15 of a control unit 13 when a setting of a reference position of a long-length imaging region and the number of images to be captured are not changed. On the other hand, the radiation image capturing apparatus clears the previous image capturing position data stored in the image capturing position data storage unit 15 of the control unit 13 when either a setting of a reference position of a long-length imaging region or the number of images to be captured is changed. Then, the control unit 13 temporarily prohibits X-ray image capturing, and a warning display unit 16 causes a display unit 11 to display a display prompting input of image capturing position data for subsequent long-length image capturing. This display is kept displayed until an operator inputs image capturing position data for subsequent long-length image capturing.

Abstract: In a radiation tomography imaging device, the imaging range calculation element 35 calculates a possible imaging range of the FPD 5 based on the imaging distance G, the irradiation swing angle ? and the movable range SP of the X-ray tube 3. The operator can preliminarily calculate the possible imaging range of the radiation detection means prior to the X-ray tomography imaging because the imaging distance, the irradiation swing angle, and the movable range SP are all predetermined parameters. The possible imaging range FP of the FPD 5 is the positional range of the FPD 5 in which the X-ray tube 3 can acquire the X-ray tomography image without moving the X-ray tube 3 to the outside of movable range. Therefore, the radiation tomography imaging can start the X-ray tomography by assuredly moving the FPD 5 within the possible imaging range by referring to the preliminarily calculated possible imaging range of the FPD 5.
