ABSTRACT:
An image reading apparatus includes a photoelectric conversion element which has a plurality of cells, the plurality of cells including shielded cells which are optically shielded so that each shielded cell outputs only the dark signal, a dark signal data generating system for generating dark signal data for each cell of the photoelectric conversion element, the dark signal data corresponding to a ratio of an image signal output from each cell under a no-exposure condition to a first reference dark signal which is obtained based on the dark signals output from the shielded cells under the no-exposure condition, a dark signal data memory for storing the dark signal data for each cell, a dark signal component generating system for generating a dark signal component for each cell, the dark signal component corresponding to a product of the dark signal data for each cell multiplied by a second reference dark signal which is obtained based on the dark signals output from the shielded cells under the exposure condition, and a subtracter for subtracting the dark signal component from an image signal obtained for each corresponding cell under the exposure condition.
