1. A radiation imaging apparatus comprising:

  • an electronic cassette and an imaging stand or an imaging table for detachably mounting said electronic cassette thereon, said electronic cassette having a flat panel detector for detecting a radiographic image and a housing containing said flat panel detector, said radiation imaging apparatus further comprising;

    an irradiation surface formed in a surface of said housing, for receiving irradiation with radiation;

    a connection terminal provided in a first side surface of said housing, said first side surface being orthogonal to said irradiation surface;

    an imaging surface provided in said imaging stand or imaging table, said imaging surface facing said irradiation surface in a state where said electronic cassette is mounted on said imaging stand or imaging table;

    first and second catch members provided in said imaging stand or imaging table, said first and second catch members catching said electronic cassette with contacting said first catch member to said first side surface of said housing and contacting said second catch member to a second side surface opposed to said first side surface, to hold said electronic cassette in a state of facing said irradiation surface to said imaging surface; and

    a connector provided in said first catch member, said connector being connected to said connection terminal when said electronic cassette is mounted on said imaging stand or imaging table, a positional relation including a distance and a direction of said connector with respect to a center line of said imaging surface being same as that of said connection terminal with respect to a center line of said irradiation surface of said electronic cassette, said center line of said irradiation surface and said center line of said imaging surface extending in a same direction when said electronic cassette is mounted on said imaging stand or imaging table.
