Patent ID: 8908832

Claim:
A radiographic apparatus, comprising: a radiation source operative to irradiate a radiation; a radiation source movement means operative to move said radiation source during a use thereof; a radiation source movement control means to control said radiation source movement means during said use; a detection means operative to detect a irradiated radiation and to output a detection signal; a detector movement means operative to move said detection means; a detector movement control means operative to control said detector movement means; an image generation means operative to generate a strip image extending to a direction orthogonal to a movement direction of said radiation source from a detection signal, wherein a shooting is operatively conducted in sequence with an incident radiation in a part of a detection means while said radiation source relative to a subject is moving; a composite image generation means operative to generate a single composite image by operatively connecting said strip images, wherein said image generation means outputs, in the movement direction of said radiation source during said use; and wherein as an operative a shooting is conducted while said detection means keeps moving relative to said radiation source in the movement direction of said radiation source so that an incident radiation region in said detection means on a previous shooting said strip image and an incident radiation region in said detection means on a following shooting said strip image do not overlap.
