Abstract

A mover 13 moves and disposes a radiation detector 12 in a photographing position P1, and projected image data D21 is acquired for each of the directions of projection at this time. By use of the mover 13, the radiation detector 12 is moved to a photographing position P2, P3, and projected image data D22, D23 is acquired in each of the photographing positions as is the case with the photographing position P1. A projected image data synthesizer 31 in the image processor section 30 synthesizes the projected image data D21, D22, and D23 to generate synthesized projected image data D20, which is the projected image data for the entire detection region.
