A radiographic imaging device comprising a short-focus radiation source
which radiates radiant rays to an examined object, a member to hold the
examined object, and a radiographic image detector which detects radiant
rays passing through the examined object and reads radiographic image
information therefrom in order to perform phase contrast photography on
the object which is held by the holding member, wherein said detector is
equipped with a phosphor plate which contains photostimulable phosphor
particles having polyhedron crystal structures and the photostimulable
phosphor occupies 60 to 80% of the photostimulable phosphor layer on the
phosphor plate.
