Patent number: 8288729Abstract: A first leakage current value output from each signal line is stored in a storage unit, with a charge corresponding to an emitted radiation being held in a radiographic image detector, when the radiation is uniformly emitted to the radiographic image detector. A second leakage current value is acquired which is output from each signal line, with a charge corresponding to the radiation dose being held in the radiographic image detector, when the radiation passing through an object is emitted to the radiographic image detector. When the first and second leakage current values are equal to each other for each line corresponding to each signal line, all pixels on the line are determined to belong to a background area (lines A and C).Type: GrantFiled: July 15, 2008Date of Patent: October 16, 2012Assignee: FUJIFILM CorporationInventors: Masaharu Ogawa, Nobuyuki Iwasaki, Takao Kuwabara
