Patent ID: 8669530

Claim:
A radiation detection element, comprising: a plurality of pixels that are arrayed in a grid, each pixel including: a sensor section that generates charges according to irradiated radiation, a first switching element that reads out the charges from the sensor section and outputs the charges, and a second switching element that reads out the charges from the sensor section and outputs the charges; a plurality of first control lines connected to control terminals of the first switching elements of the pixels that are adjacent in a row direction; a plurality of second control lines connected to control terminals of the second switching elements of the pixels that are adjacent in the row direction; and a plurality of signal lines, each provided for a respective column of the pixels, and each connected to output terminals of the first switching elements that are adjacent in a column direction, wherein the plurality of signal lines includes signal line groups in which some of the signal lines are connected to output terminals of the second switching elements of the pixels that are adjacent in the column direction and that are adjacent in the row direction, wherein a control signal that controls the first switching elements flows in the plurality of first control lines when still image imaging is performed, and a control signal that controls the second switching elements flows in the plurality of second control lines when moving image imaging is performed.
