Abstract
A cassette is provided having an emitter for emitting an erasing light to release residual radiation energy from a stimulable phosphor sheet stored therein does not need to be conveyed to a power supply unit, and in which an emission time of the emitter can be controlled appropriately. The cassette storing the sheet for recording a radiation image therein and comprising a stimulable phosphor layer formed on a substrate thereof has the emitter for irradiating the erasing light on the sheet and a power supply for causing the emitter to emit the erasing light, and a control circuit for controlling the emission time.
Claims28
A cassette for storing a stimulable phosphor sheet having a stimulable phosphor layer formed on a sheet-form substrate, the stimulable phosphor sheet being used for recording a radiation image therein, the cassette comprising:
- an emitter for emitting an erasing light to the sheet stored in the cassette;
- a power supply for causing the emitter to emit the erasing light;
- and
- a control circuit for controlling a time of emission from the emitter powered by the power supply.
