the readout unit

reads out a signal from pixels simultaneously selected, out of the plurality of pixels, in accordance with a row selection line connected in common for each row, and

in a case where a first pixel for detecting an incident dose during capturing of a radiation image that is set from the plurality of pixels is a defective pixel, reads out a signal for detecting an incident dose from, instead of the first pixel, a second pixel selected from the plurality of pixels so that at least one row is arranged between the row that includes the first pixel and a row that includes the second pixel.

2. The radiation imaging apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the first pixel and the second pixel output signals to a common column signal line.

3. The radiation imaging apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein

the readout unit further reads out a signal for detecting an incident dose from, out of the plurality of pixels, a third pixel set so that at least one row is arranged between the row that includes the first pixel and a row that includes the third pixel, and

the readout unit selects the second pixel so that at least one row is arranged between the row that includes the second pixel and the row that includes the third pixel.

4. The radiation imaging apparatus according to claim 3 , wherein the second pixel and the third pixel output signals to a common column signal line.

5. The radiation imaging apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein

the readout unit simultaneously reads out signals from a pixel group of n mutually adjacent rows (n is an integer that is greater than or equal to 2), and

selects the second pixel so that n×m 1 (m 1 is a positive integer) rows are arranged between a pixel group that includes the first pixel and a pixel group that includes the second pixel.

6. The radiation imaging apparatus according to claim 5 , wherein

the readout unit further reads out a signal for detecting an incident dose from, out of the plurality of pixels, a third pixel set as included in a pixel group separated from the pixel group that includes the first pixel by at least n×m 2 (m 2 is a positive integer) rows, and

the readout unit selects the second pixel so that n×m 3 (m 3 is a positive integer) rows are arranged between a pixel group that includes the second pixel and a pixel group that includes the third pixel.

7. The radiation imaging apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein, if the second pixel is a defective pixel, the readout unit reads out a signal for detecting an incident dose from a fourth pixel included in the same row as the row of the second pixel.

8. The radiation imaging apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein

the radiation imaging apparatus further includes a storage unit configured to store an arrangement of a defective pixel out of the plurality of pixels, and

if the first pixel is a defective pixel stored in the storage unit, the readout unit reads out a signal for detecting an incident dose from the second pixel.

9. The radiation imaging apparatus according to claim 8 , wherein

the radiation imaging apparatus further includes a determination unit configured to determine whether or not each pixel of the plurality of pixels is a defective pixel, and

the determination unit causes the storage unit to store an arrangement of a pixel from the plurality of pixels determined to be a defective pixel.

10. A radiation imaging system, comprising:

a radiation imaging apparatus according to claim 1 ; and

a radiation source for emitting radiation onto the radiation imaging apparatus.

11. A control method for a radiation imaging apparatus comprising a plurality of pixels that configure a plurality of rows and a plurality of columns and are configured to obtain a radiation image; and a readout unit configured to readout signals from the plurality of pixels,

the readout unit simultaneously reading out signals for pixels, out of the plurality of pixels, connected to a common row selection line for each row, the method comprising:

determining whether a first pixel, set out of the plurality of pixels, for detecting an incident dose during capturing of the radiation image is a defective pixel; and

if it is determined that the first pixel is a defective pixel, reading out, by the readout unit, a signal for detecting an incident dose from, instead of the first pixel, a second pixel selected out of the plurality of pixels so that at least one row is arranged between a row that includes the first pixel and a row that includes the second pixel.

12. A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing a program for causing a computer to execute a control method for a radiation imaging apparatus comprising a plurality of pixels that configure a plurality of rows and a plurality of columns and are configured to obtain a radiation image; and a readout unit configured to readout signals from the plurality of pixels,

the readout unit simultaneously reading out signals for pixels, out of the plurality of pixels, connected to a common row selection line for each row,

the method comprising:

determining whether a first pixel, set out of the plurality of pixels, for detecting an incident dose during capturing of the radiation image is a defective pixel; and

if it is determined that the first pixel is a defective pixel, reading out, by the readout unit, a signal for detecting an incident dose from, instead of the first pixel, a second pixel selected out of the plurality of pixels so that at least one row is arranged between a row that includes the first pixel and a row that includes the second pixel.
