Radiation image read-out method

摘要

In a radiation image read-out method wherein preliminary read-out is conducted prior to final read-out for adjusting final read-out conditions and/or image processing conditions for a plurality of stimulable phosphor sheets carrying a radiation image of the same object recorded thereon by combination image recording, the preliminary read-out and the final read-out are conducted only for the first stimulable phosphor sheet which is first subjected to the image read-out, and only the final read-out is conducted for the other stimulable phosphor sheets by use of the read-out conditions and/or image processing conditions adjusted on the basis of the image input information obtained by the preliminary read-out of the first stimulable phosphor sheet.
