| 1. A radiation imaging apparatus, comprising:
a flat panel detector;
a holding unit for holding at least the flat panel detector; and
a control unit for controlling the flat panel detector, wherein
the flat panel detector can be connected to and disconnected from the holding unit,
connecting state radiographing can be performed with the flat panel detector connected to the holding unit, and non-connecting
state radiographing can be performed with the flat panel detector disconnected from the holding unit, and
the control unit controls the flat panel detector such that a heat generation quantity of the flat panel detector during the
non-connecting state radiographing can be lower than a heat generation quantity of the flat panel detector during the connecting
state radiographing.
