A radiation imaging apparatus includes an imaging unit and an imaging control unit. The imaging control unit causes a switch unit, a accumulation unit, a removal unit, a holding unit, and an addition unit, which constitute a pixel circuit of the imaging unit, to operate at a timing before imaging operation by the imaging unit so as to fix unstable voltages of the accumulation unit, the removal unit, the holding unit, and the addition unit to a predetermined voltage of a power supply connected via a switch unit.
A radiation imaging apparatus comprising:
A control method for a radiation imaging apparatus including an imaging unit formed by arranging pixel circuits in m rows×n columns (where m and n are natural numbers not less than two) in a two-dimensional area, each including a switch unit adapted to be connected to a power supply adapted to apply a predetermined voltage at the time of operation and disconnected from the power supply at the time of non-operation, an accumulation unit adapted to accumulate a signal corresponding to one pixel corresponding to an input radiation signal, a removal unit adapted to remove noise from the signal, a holding unit adapted to hold the signal from which the noise is removed and output the signal, and an addition unit adapted to perform addition processing of the signal held by the holding unit and signals held by holding units of a (a is a natural number not less than two) adjacent other pixel circuits, and an imaging control unit adapted to control operation of each of the pixel circuits constituting the imaging unit, said method comprising
