Patent attributes
A cassette to record a radiation image of an object to be radiographed includes a sheet-shaped recording medium including a layer of needle imaging plate, formed by a deposition method, having a thickness of 20 μm to 2 mm. The sheet-shaped recording medium is accommodated in a space between a front member and a back member of the cassette, such that the recording medium receives the radiation image of the object through the front member, and the back member is positioned opposite and attached to the front member. The back and front members are attachable to each other and detachable from each other along a direction that is substantially the same as a growing direction of the needle imaging plate. The recording medium is coupled to the back member such that the recording medium and the base member move with respect to each other when the back member deforms.
