When performing processing for eliminating scattered radiation included in radiation transmitted through a subject on a radiation image captured by irradiating the subject with radiation, an imaging condition acquisition unit acquires imaging conditions, and a distance information acquisition unit acquires distance information representing the distance between the subject and a radiation detector. A scattered radiation information acquisition unit acquires scattered radiation component information representing a scattered radiation component of radiation included in the radiation image based on at least the imaging conditions, and a correction unit corrects the scattered radiation component information based on the distance information. A scattered radiation elimination unit performs scattered radiation elimination processing of the radiation image based on the corrected scattered radiation component information.
