Abstract: An X-ray image diagnostic device of the invention has sensitivity-information-acquisition controlling means commanding synchronization between X-ray irradiation from the X-ray source and readout of X-ray plane detector for correcting sensitivity. When sensitivity information of the X-ray plane detector is calculated using the intensities of X-rays irradiated onto the X-ray plane detector and X-rays detected by the X-ray plane detector, readout of the X-ray plane detector is performed synchronously with X-ray irradiation, and sensitivity information corresponding to variation of the amount of X-ray radiation onto the X-ray plane detector during the reading time is determined using data of every readout channel. Therefore, sensitivity information enabling an accurate sensitivity correction can be obtained from a single output image. This sensitivity information is stored in sensitivity-information-storing means and used for correcting sensitivity of X-ray image data acquired in actual measurements.

Abstract: A correction table unit (5) contains correction tables for correcting output values of image data of the first image, the second image, . . . , the n-th image successively output from an X-ray plane detector (4) of a radiographic image diagnosis device and having different output rise characteristics. After correction of the image data, the second image data is subtracted from the first image data, . . . , and the n-th image data is subtracted from the first image data by a subtraction unit (8).

Abstract: Sensitivity information on the sensitivities of the channels of a flat x-ray detector (3) is used for sensitivity correction of an image formed by irradiation of a subject with x-rays and read out of the flat x-ray detector (3). The collection of sensitivity information is started when a signal for starting the collection of the sensitivity information is sent to a sensitivity information collection control means (11) from an operator console (12). The sensitivity information collection control means (11) sends an irradiation start signal for starting irradiation with calibration light to calibration light control means (10). The calibration light control means (10) controls calibration light irradiation means (9) so that a desired intensity of light may be applied to the inside of the flat x-ray detector (3). Thus, a calibration light reception signal outputted from the flat x-ray detector (3) is stored as sensitivity information in sensitivity information storage means (5).
