  • Publication number: 20170311920
    Abstract: A radiographic image capturing apparatus includes: a two-dimensional array of radiation detecting elements that generate one or more electric charges in proportion to a dose of incident radiation; and a control unit that performs control, at least, to read the electric charges from the radiation detecting elements and generate image data. An image capturing mode is switchable between a controlled mode in which the radiographic image capturing apparatus is under control of an external console and a stand-alone mode in which the radiographic image capturing apparatus autonomously performs image capturing without the control of the console. When the image capturing mode is switched to the controlled mode or the stand-alone mode, the control unit changes its own process so as to meet the switched image capturing mode.

  • Publication number: 20170303885
    Abstract: A portable radiographic capturing apparatus includes: a detecting unit provided with a two-dimensional array of radiation detecting elements accumulating charges in proportion to a dose of radiation; and a control unit which controls accumulation of the charges by the radiation detecting elements and reading of the accumulated charges therefrom, the charges being in proportion to the dose of radiation emitted as pulsed radiation from a radiation source and transmitted through a subject, to generate plural frame images of the subject, wherein the control unit obtains waveform information on the emitted radiation by causing at least some of the radiation detecting elements to accumulate the charges in proportion to the radiation preliminarily emitted from the radiation source for adjustment and by reading the accumulated charges, and adjusts a control condition for generation of the frame images of the subject on the basis of the obtained waveform information.

  • Publication number: 20170042009
    Abstract: A radiation imaging system includes a radiation source and a notifying unit. The radiation source is for still image shooting and moving image shooting performed by the radiation imaging system to obtain image data of a subject. The notifying unit notifies whether a type of imaging to be performed is the still image shooting or the moving image shooting in a mode in which the type is instinctively recognizable by at least one of sense of sight, sense of hearing, and sense of touch.

  • Publication number: 20170025158
    Abstract: A console includes: a display unit which plays back a dynamic image formed of a plurality of frame images to display according to operation of an operator; and a learning unit which, when detecting that operation of possibly expressing interest is performed by the operator during playback of the dynamic image, performs statistical processing on a value of an index regarding a dynamic state of a site to be examined and/or change in time of the value of the index in a frame image displayed on the display unit at that time to learn appearance frequency of the value of the index and/or the pattern of the change in time of the value of the index.

  • Publication number: 20170020470
    Abstract: An imaging console including: a display section which is capable of displaying a moving image; and a control section which performs control on the basis of imaging order information regarding imaging to be performed, the imaging order information specifying at least patient information regarding a patient and imaging site information regarding an imaging site; wherein in a case where the imaging order information specifies imaging of a moving image, at the time when the imaging order information is obtained or input, the control section obtains a past moving image of the patient or a past moving image of the imaging site on the basis of at least one of the patient information and the imaging site information, and displays the obtained past moving image on the display section.

  • Publication number: 20170014093
    Abstract: A radiation imaging system includes an imaging unit, a detection unit, a change determination unit and a control unit. The imaging unit emits radiation and images a dynamic state of a subject, thereby taking a plurality of frame images of the dynamic state of the subject. The detection unit detects the dynamic state of the subject being imaged and generates detection information on the dynamic state. The change determination unit determines whether change of the dynamic state being imaged is within a predetermined range based on the generated detection information. The control unit controls capturing of the taken frame images according to a result of the determination of the change determination unit.

  • Publication number: 20140380325
    Abstract: A multiprocessor system includes: a logical processor assigned to any one of physical processors to be executed on the multiprocessor system; and a scheduler managing the assignment of the logical processor to one of the first kind physical processor and the second kind physical processor. The logical processor has a flag for holding information indicating an internal state of the logical processor. The scheduler determines the assignment of the logical processor to one of the first kind physical processor and the second kind physical processor, based on presence or absence of an occurrence of a predetermined event and the information held in the flag.

  • Publication number: 20110078702
    Abstract: To suppress bias in processors executing a non-routinely-executed program such as event processing, and so on, and thus improve multiprocessor system performance. For this purpose, a multiprocessor system includes: a first context memory which is shared and stores context data of a program that is non-routinely executed by any one of plural processors; saving-and-restoring control units of a same number as the processors, each of which, when an execution request for a program is issued to the corresponding processor, saves and stores context data between the first context memory in the case where the requested program is the program that is non-routinely executed; and a selecting-and-requesting unit which, each time an execution request for the program that is non-routinely executed is issued, requests execution of such program to a selected processor.
