X-ray image reader

摘要

An X-ray image reader including a plurality of read heads and a scan drive device for scanning an X-ray image-storing member by moving the read heads is disclosed. The X-ray image reader has a multi head mode in which a read processing of an X-ray image held on the X-ray image storing member is performed by using at least two of the read heads, and a single head mode in which a read processing of an X-ray image held on the X-ray image storing member is performed by using only one of the read heads. The multi head mode is selected when a high-speed measurement is requested and the single head mode is selected when precise measurement is requested.
