1. An image transmission apparatus comprising at least one processor, wherein the processor is configured to:
sequentially generate a plurality of tomographic images on each of a plurality of tomographic planes of a subject by reconfiguring a plurality of projection images corresponding to each of a plurality of radiation source positions, the plurality of projection images being generated by causing an imaging apparatus to perform tomosynthesis imaging of relatively moving a radiation source with respect to a detection surface of a radiation detector and irradiating the subject with radiation at the plurality of radiation source positions according to movement of the radiation source;
determine whether or not at least one of the tomographic images is visually recognized by an operator; and
transmit the plurality of tomographic images to an external apparatus in a case where it is determined that at least one of the tomographic images is visually recognized by the operator.
