This adversely affects diagnosis.
Thus, unsuccessfully photographed film is not used for diagnosis.
Such failure film is disposed of as unsatisfactorily photographed film.

Embodiment Construction

[0031] Various embodiments, features and aspects of the present invention will now be herein described in detail in accordance with the accompanying drawings.

[0032]FIG. 1 is a block circuit diagram showing an exemplary system structure of a medical digital X-ray photographing apparatus according to an embodiment of the present invention. An X-ray photographing apparatus 10 includes an image read controller 12, a random-access memory (RAM) 13, a central processing unit (CPU) 14, a disk interface 15, a local-area network (LAN) interface 16, and a user interface 17 that are connected to each other via an internal bus 11. The RAM 13 includes a RAM unit 13a that stores a control program and a RAM unit 13b that temporarily stores images.

[0033] An output of a flat-panel detector (FPD) 18 that includes a phosphor and a large-screen photoelectric converter, is connected via a data line 10a, to the image read controller 12 that stores images. A hard disk 19 that stores a control program, co...

Abstract

When a retake button is selected, a CPU causes a dialog screen for inputting a reason for a photographic error to be displayed. On the dialog screen, the name of a radiographer who is logging onto an X-ray photographing apparatus and select buttons indicating possible reasons for photographic errors are indicated. The CPU transmits an unsatisfactorily photographed image to a different server.

Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION [0001] 1. Field of the Invention [0002] The present invention relates to an X-ray image photographing apparatus and a management method in which images that are unsuccessfully X-ray photographed are treated as unsatisfactorily photographed images. [0003] 2. Description of the Related Art [0004] Film-screen systems in which intensifying screens and X-ray photographic film are combined together have been widely used for X-ray photography in medical diagnosis. A photography order requested by a doctor is returned to the doctor as X-ray film, and the doctor observes the X-ray film on an X-ray film observation device. In this case, in order to observe a diagnosis region easily, a density range in which observation can be easily achieved, such as a contrast range of about 1.0 D to 1.5 D, is set. However, if a deviation from photographic conditions occurs, overexposure or underexposure is likely to occur. This adversely affects diagnosis. Thus, unsuccessfully ph...
