Abstract: In an X-ray radiation source, a counter wall made of alkali-containing glass, out of walls of a housing of an X-ray tube, is sandwiched between a filament and an electric field control electrode to each of which a negative high voltage is applied. This configuration prevents an electric field from being generated in the counter wall and thus suppresses precipitation of alkali ions from the glass. Therefore, it prevents change in potential relationship between electrodes at different potentials such as the filament, grid, and target and enables stable operation to be maintained, without occurrence of a trouble of failure in maintaining a desired X-ray amount.

Abstract: A communication device includes: a first communication unit that performs at least communications of image data with a first external device in a first communication mode; a second communication unit that performs communications with a second external device via a network in a second communication mode; a communication status determination unit that determines communication status in the first communication mode; and a device-side communication controller. When the communication status in the first communication mode is not favorable for communications of the image data, the device-side communication controller performs communications with the second external device via the second communication unit on a request for turning the communication status in the first communication mode to favorable status.
