Abstract
A radiographic imaging apparatus is provided. The apparatus comprises a sensor panel in which pixels are provided and a processor that generates an image that corresponds to the number of radiation photons incident on each of the pixels. In an imaging mode in which an image formed by radiation that has passed through a subject is generated, the processor generates a correction signal by correcting a value of a signal output from the conversion element of each of the pixels according to a correction coefficient for converting the value of the signal output from the conversion element on which a radiation photon was incident to a value that corresponds to an energy value of the radiation photon, and generates an image based on the number of correction signals of pixels on which a radiation photon was incident from among the correction signals of the pixels.
