1. A method of capturing a radiation image with a radiation image capturing system including a conversion panel for detecting a radiation that has passed through a subject and converting the detected radiation into radiation image information, a conversion panel identification information reading unit for reading conversion panel identification information which is stored in the conversion panel to identify the conversion panel, from said conversion panel, and an identifying unit for identifying said conversion panel with the conversion panel identification information, said method comprising:

  • the image capturing permission determining step of checking, with said identifying unit, specified conversion panel identification information, which is the conversion panel identification information of a conversion panel that is planned to be used to capture a radiation image, and actual conversion panel identification information, which is the conversion panel identification information of a conversion panel that is to be actually used to capture a radiation image, against each other, and determining, with said identifying unit, whether said radiation image is permitted to be captured or not, based on the result of checking the specified and actual conversion panel identification information,wherein said radiation image capturing system further includes a patient identification information storing unit for storing patient identification information for identifying individual patients, said patient identification information storing unit being carried by the individual patients, and a patient identification information reading unit for reading the patient identification information from said patient identification information storing unit, said method further comprising;

    the second image capturing permission determining step of checking, with said identifying unit, specified patient identification information, which is the patient identification information of a patient that is planned to be imaged, and actual patient identification information, which is the patient identification information of a patient that is to be actually imaged and which is read from said patient identification information storing unit by said patient identification information reading unit, against each other, and determining, with said identifying unit, whether said radiation image is permitted to be captured or not, based on the result of checking the specified and actual patient identification information.
