Radiographic imaging apparatus, radiographic imaging assistance method, and non-transitory computer-readable recording medium storing radiographic imaging assistance program

A radiographic imaging assistance method by a radiographic imaging apparatus, comprising:

• capturing a radiographic image of a target part of a subject during a predetermined motion on a frame-by-frame basis;
• determining, on the frame-by-frame basis, whether or not a skeleton of the target part is at a reference position for the captured radiographic image, and identifying, as a reference position image, the radiographic image when the skeleton of the target part is at the reference position;
• and
• providing a notification based on whether or not the reference position image has been identified.

A non-transitory computer-readable recording medium storing a radiographic imaging assistance program that causes a computer of a radiographic imaging apparatus to perform:

• capturing a radiographic image of a target part of a subject during a predetermined motion on a frame-by-frame basis;
• determining, on the frame-by-frame basis, whether or not a skeleton of the target part is at a reference position for the captured radiographic image and identifying, as a reference position image, the radiographic image when the skeleton of the target part is at the reference position;
• and
• providing a notification based on whether or not the reference position image has been identified.
