Abstract

A radiographic imaging apparatus includes: a radiographic image obtainer configured to acquire a first radiographic image of an object; and a processor configured to obtain attenuation information of the object based on the first radiographic image, determine candidate tube voltages and tube currents based on a quality of a second radiographic image to be obtained, and determine expected exposure doses corresponding to the determined candidate tube voltages and tube currents.
