Radiographic image processing device, method, and program

A radiographic image processing method, comprising:

• acquiring a radiographic image which is captured by irradiating a subject with radiation;
• detecting whether a grid stripe, which is a stripe pattern caused by a grid used during imaging, is present in the radiographic image;
• performing a grid stripe removal process for the radiographic image in a case in which the grid stripe is detected;
• performing a scattered radiation removal process of removing a scattered component included in the radiation that is transmitted through the subject during imaging from the radiographic image in a case in which the grid stripe is not detected;
• and
• displaying a radiographic image subjected to the grid stripe removal process on a display unit in the case in which the grid stripe is detected and displaying a radiographic image subjected to the scattered radiation removal process and a radiographic image before the scattered radiation removal process on the display unit in the case in which the grid stripe is not detected.

A non-transitory recording medium having stored therein a radiographic image processing program that causes a computer to perform:

• a step of acquiring a radiographic image which is captured by irradiating a subject with radiation;
• a step of detecting whether a grid stripe, which is a stripe pattern caused by a grid used during imaging, is present in the radiographic image;
• a step of performing a grid stripe removal process for the radiographic image in a case in which the grid stripe is detected;
• a step of performing a scattered radiation removal process of removing a scattered component included in the radiation that is transmitted through the subject during imaging from the radiographic image in a case in which the grid stripe is not detected;
• and
• a step of displaying a radiographic image subjected to the grid stripe removal process on a display unit in the case in which the grid stripe is detected and displaying a radiographic image subjected to the scattered radiation removal process and a radiographic image before the scattered radiation removal process on the display unit in the case in which the grid stripe is not detected.
