1. A control device comprising:
a radiography control unit configured to cause irradiation of a breast with radiation and cause a radiation detector to capture a radiographic image of the breast, wherein the breast is in a state of being pressed by a pressing member of an imaging member that includes:
the pressing member, and
an ultrasonography member that has a first surface on which an acoustic matching member having fluidity is provided; and
an ultrasonography control unit configured to cause an ultrasonography apparatus to capture an ultrasound image of the breast, in a state in which the ultrasonography member is on a second surface of the pressing member that is on a side of the pressing member opposite to a surface that contacts the breast, via a coupling material having lower fluidity than the acoustic matching member provided on the first surface of the ultrasonography member.
 
8. A control method executed by a computer, the control method comprising:
causing irradiation of a breast with radiation and causing a radiation detector to capture a radiographic image of the breast, wherein the breast is in a state of being pressed by a pressing member of an imaging member that includes:
the pressing member, and
an ultrasonography member that has a first surface on which an acoustic matching member having fluidity is provided; and
causing an ultrasonography apparatus to capture an ultrasound image of the breast, in a state in which the ultrasonography member is provided on a second surface of the pressing member that is on a side of the pressing member opposite to a surface that contacts the breast, via a coupling material having lower fluidity than the acoustic matching member provided on the first surface of the ultrasonography member.
 
9. A non-transitory computer readable medium storing a control program executable by a computer to perform a process, the process comprising:
causing irradiation of a breast with radiation and causing a radiation detector to capture a radiographic image of the breast, wherein the breast is in a state of being pressed by a pressing member of an imaging member that includes:
the pressing member, and
an ultrasonography member that has a first surface on which an acoustic matching member having fluidity is provided; and
causing an ultrasonography apparatus to capture an ultrasound image of the breast, in a state in which the ultrasonography member is provided on a second surface of the pressing member that is on a side of the pressing member opposite to a surface that contacts the breast, via a coupling material having lower fluidity than the acoustic matching member provided on the first surface of the ultrasonography member.
