1. An exposure record totalizer comprising:
a hardware processor that receives a first exposure record which is an actual exposure record of a first exposure and a second exposure record which is an actual exposure record of a second exposure, when a radiography system generates a first exposure image through the first exposure and a second exposure image through the second exposure, the first exposure record including a first parameter with a first value, the second exposure record including the first parameter with a second value, the first parameter being at least one of an irradiation time, a tube current time product, an area dose value and an incident surface dose value;
that combines the first exposure record and the second exposure record to generate a third exposure record, the third exposure record including the first parameter with a third value, the third value being a total of the first value and the second value;
that links information about the third exposure record to a third exposure image generated on the basis of the first exposure image and the second exposure image; and
that displays, on a display, the third exposure image and the third exposure record.
