Abstract

A radiation imaging apparatus including: a first scintillator layer configured to convert a radiation (R) which has entered the first scintillator layer into light; a second scintillator layer configured to convert a radiation transmitted through the first scintillator layer into light; a fiber optic plate (FOP) provided between the first scintillator layer and the second scintillator layer; and an imaging portion configured to convert the light generated in the first scintillator layer and the light generated in the second scintillator layer into an electric signal.
