Network system for radiographing radiation-images
First Claim
1. A radiographic imaging system, comprising:
- a plurality of controllers, each of which is adapted to register a photographing order for a subject and to receive image data, and each of which includes an image-display section to display the received image data;
a plurality of radiation-image reading apparatuses, at least a plurality of which generate image data from respective radiation images stored in respective radiation-image storing mediums, in accordance with one said photographing order for a target patient from one of the controllers; and
a network to link the plurality of controllers and the plurality of radiation-image reading apparatuses to each other;
wherein the controller that has registered the one said photographing order for the target patient is specified, and each of the radiation-image reading apparatuses that have generated image data in accordance with the one said order transmit the generated image data of the target patient to the specified controller through the network so that the specified controller displays the image data of the target patient; and
wherein the plurality of controllers are prioritized in advance, and when the generated image data cannot be transmitted to the specified controller, the radiation-image reading apparatuses transmit the generated image data to a given one of the controllers having a highest priority among the controllers able to receive the image data among the plurality of controllers.

Abstract
There is described a radiographic imaging system to read radiation image stored in a radiation-image storing sheet. The radiographic imaging system includes a plurality of controllers, each of which has an image-display section; a plurality of radiation-image reading apparatus to read a radiation image stored in a radiation-image storing sheet so as to generate image data; and a network to link the plurality of controllers and the plurality of radiation-image reading apparatus; wherein the controller requests a radiation-image reading apparatus to transmit the image data, read by the radiation-image reading apparatus, to the controller. The radiation-image reading apparatus reads a sheet-discrimination information in regard to each of the radiation-image storing sheets, and transmits the sheet-discrimination information to the plurality of controllers, and one of the controllers requests the radiation-image reading apparatus to transmit the image data to the controller, based on the sheet-discrimination information sent from the radiation-image reading apparatus.

7. A radiographic imaging system, comprising:
-
a plurality of image data generating apparatus, each of which includes an image data generating section for generating image data representing a radiation image formed by radiation rays penetrated through a subject, an image data storing section for temporarily storing the image data generated by the image data generating section, and an image-data transmitting section for transmitting the image data which is read from the image data storing section; a plurality of controllers, each of which includes an image data receiving section capable of receiving the image data transmitted by the image-data transmitting section, and an image display for displaying the radiation image based on the image data; and a network to link the plurality of image data generating apparatuses and the plurality of controllers to each other; wherein one of the controllers registers a photographing order for a target patient, and at least a plurality of the image generating apparatuses generate image data in accordance with the photographing order, and wherein the one of the controllers is specified and each image data generating apparatus that has generated the image data in accordance with the photographing order sends the generated image data of the target patient to the specified controller through the network so that the specified controller displays the image data of the target patient; wherein a priority degree is attached to each of the plurality of controllers according to a priority order of the plurality of controllers, and when the generated image data cannot be transmitted to the specified controller, the image data generating apparatuses transmit the image data to a given one of the controllers having a highest priority degree among the plurality of controllers; and wherein, when the image data cannot be transmitted to the controller having the highest priority degree, the image data generating apparatuses transmit the image data to another one of the controllers having a next-highest priority degree among the plurality of controllers.
