ABSTRACT:
The invention relates to a radiation image converting apparatus which employs an accelerated phosphorescence fluorescent plate which is rigid or low in flexibility, and it is an object of the invention to provide a radiation image converting apparatus which prevents radiations having passed through an accelerated phosphorescence fluorescent plate from being scattered and irradiated upon the accelerated phosphorescence fluorescent plate again and achieves miniaturization of the equipment and simplification in structure. The radiation image converting apparatus of the present invention is comprises a lead containing sheet or a radiation absorbing plate which is composed of a plurality of rigid lead containing plates combined with each other, and a moving mechanism for moving the lead containing sheet or the radiation absorbing plate such that the lead containing sheet or the radiation absorbing plate is moved to a position behind the accelerated phosphorescence fluorescent plate prior to photographing but is retracted from the position behind the accelerated phosphorescence fluorescent plate prior to reading.
