ABSTRACT:
An X-ray image diagnostic device of the invention has sensitivity-information-acquisition controlling means commanding synchronization between X-ray irradiation from the X-ray source and readout of X-ray plane detector for correcting sensitivity. When sensitivity information of the X-ray plane detector is calculated using the intensities of X-rays irradiated onto the X-ray plane detector and X-rays detected by the X-ray plane detector, readout of the X-ray plane detector is performed synchronously with X-ray irradiation, and sensitivity information corresponding to variation of the amount of X-ray radiation onto the X-ray plane detector during the reading time is determined using data of every readout channel. Therefore, sensitivity information enabling an accurate sensitivity correction can be obtained from a single output image. This sensitivity information is stored in sensitivity-information-storing means and used for correcting sensitivity of X-ray image data acquired in actual measurements.
