A radiation imaging apparatus includes a pixel array including a plurality of pixels, and a readout circuit configured to read out a signal from the pixel array, each of the plurality of pixels including a conversion element configured to convert a radiation into an electrical signal, and a sample-and-hold circuit configured to perform sampling-and-holding a plurality of times on a signal from the conversion element in response to the radiation. The radiation imaging apparatus further includes a processing unit configured to perform processing of determining timings of the plurality of times of the sampling-and-holdings based on information about temporal change in radiation energy of the radiation obtained based on a signal read out by the readout circuit, and a control unit configured to perform control so that the plurality of times of sampling-and-holdings is performed by the sample-and-hold circuit at the timings determined by the processing unit.
A radiation imaging apparatus comprising:
A method for controlling a radiation imaging apparatus including a pixel array including a plurality of pixels and a readout circuit configured to read out a signal from the pixel array, each of the plurality of pixels including a conversion element configured to convert a radiation into an electrical signal and a sample-and-hold circuit configured to perform a sampling-and-holding a plurality of times on a signal from the conversion element in response to the radiation, the control method comprising:
