Abstract

See full text

A multiradiation generation apparatus according to the present invention includes a plurality of radiation sources arranged in a row. Each of the radiation sources includes an electron source configured to emit electrons and a target unit configured to generate radiation upon receiving electrons emitted from the electron source. At least one of the radiation sources is a dual-purpose radiation source used for both tomosynthesis imaging and non-tomosynthesis imaging, and the other radiation sources are single-purpose radiation sources used only for tomosynthesis imaging.
