Abstract: An X-ray imaging device that includes an X-ray source, an X-ray sensor that acquires intensity information of X-rays, a distance sensor that obtains distance information to a surface of an imaging object, and an information processing device that obtains imaging information by using the intensity information and the distance information. The information processing device includes an extraction unit that extracts information used in generation of the imaging information from the intensity information by using at least the distance information, and a reconstruction unit that generates the imaging information by using the intensity information.

Abstract: Provided are a collimator, a radiation detection device, and a radiation inspection device that are capable of further removing scattered radiation. This collimator 20 comprises: a radiation blocking section 22; and a radiation transmission section 21 that has a lower radiation blocking rate than the radiation blocking section 22, penetrates the radiation blocking section 22, and is solid. The X-ray transmission section 21 of the collimator 20 is solid therefore X-rays on the low-energy side that have been scattered by a subject B in the X-ray transmission section 21 are absorbed, as a result of this collimator 20. Accordingly, there is little noise contained in X-rays detected by a radiation detection element 30 and a high-resolution X-ray image can be obtained.

Abstract: A waveform discrimination device includes: a waveform detector receiving waveforms of pulses to be measured and converting the waveforms to electrical signals; an analog amplifier expanding transient waveforms of the electrical signals along a time-domain axis; an AD converter converting the electrical signals to digital data in rise and fall times of the electrical signals; and a signal processing circuit calculating a characteristic-amount of the rise time as a point on a first coordinate axis by using the digital data, and calculating a characteristic-amount of the fall time as a point on a second coordinate axis, so as to define a set of the points on the first and second coordinate axes as a coordinate point, and plot the coordinate point on a discrimination plane, wherein, by plotted positions of the coordinate point, whether the pulses has a first waveform or a second waveform is discriminated.
