Elements that determine a photographing sequence include at least a path that minimizes a moving distance or a moving time of a subject, and a path that minimizes a moving distance or a moving time of a component constituting an X-ray radiographic apparatus. In step S1 (select each button), one of the respective elements is selected, and according to the selected element, the photographing sequence is determined in any one of steps S10, S20, and S30. That is, a user selects an element that matches a situation and determines the photographing sequence according to the selected element, thereby allowing the user to freely sort the photographing sequence according to the situation.
