PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a control device that allows workability of breast compression work by an operator to be improved, a radiographic imaging apparatus, a radiographic imaging method, and a radiographic imaging program.SOLUTION: A radiographic imaging apparatus includes a radiation source 24, an imaging platform 22 in which a breast N of a subject W is placed on an imaging surface 20 on which a radiation R emitted from the radiation source 24 is incident, and a compression plate 26 for compressing the breast N between the imaging platform 22 and itself. A control part executes first control to cause the radiation source 24 and the imaging platform 22 to be in non-opposed positions where they are not opposed to each other before the breast N is compressed between the imaging platform 22 and the compression plate 26. Also, the control part executes second control to move the radiation source 24 to a position where it is opposed to the imaging platform 22 after the breast N is compressed.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1【課題】作業者による乳房の圧迫作業の作業性を向上させることが可能な制御装置、放射線画像撮影装置、放射線画像撮影方法、及び放射線画像撮影プログラムを提供する。【解決手段】放射線源24と、放射線源24から出射された放射線Rが入射する撮影面20に被検者Wの乳房Nを載置する撮影台22と、撮影台22との間で乳房Nを圧迫する圧迫板26と、を備える。制御部は、撮影台22と圧迫板26との間で乳房Nが圧迫される前に、放射線源24と撮影台22とを互いに対向しない位置である非対向位置とする第1制御を行う。また、制御部は、乳房Nが圧迫された後に、放射線源24を撮影台22と対向する位置に移動させる第2制御を行う。【選択図】図1
