In a radiographic image connection processing method of connecting plural
partial radiographic images, the partial radiographic images are
selected, and if appropriate the operation mode is changed, e.g., from an
image position adjustment mode, for adjusting a position of the selected
partial radiographic image, to an image measurement mode, for measuring
the selected partial radiographic image, or vice versa. The selected
partial radiographic images are connected. Thus, it is possible to
achieve image position adjustment and image measurement during
radiographic image connection, and it is also possible to achieve smooth
performance of the operations for image position adjustment and image
measurement.
