1. A medical image management apparatus comprising a hardware processor that:
retrieves image data from an image capturer which is a Flat Panel Detector (FPD) that generates and stores the image data of a medical image; and
in retrieving the image data that is generated by imaging with an imaging method in which the image data is stored in the image capturer without associating at least one of patient information of a patient and order information with the image data, and stored in the image capturer,
disables automatic associating of the image data obtained by the imaging with the imaging method with at least one of the patient information and the order information or
disables retrieving of the image data obtained by the imaging with the imaging method in a state in which the image data obtained by the imaging with the imaging method is automatically associated with at least one of the patient information and the order information,
in a state that a single piece of image data of radiation image is stored in the FPD, sets to enable/disable the retrieving of the image data stored in the FPD and associating of the image data with the patient information of the patient that is currently displayed,
in a state that an imaging mode switching button was pressed and input, determines whether the pressing input of the imaging mode switching button was an on input to switch to a memory imaging mode,
in a state that the pressing input of the imaging mode switching button was the on input to a normal imaging mode, performs on setting to the normal imaging mode, and then performs setting to enable a network connection to a communication network, and ends an imaging mode switching processing, and
in a state that the pressing input of the imaging mode switching button was the on input to the memory imaging mode, performs on setting to the memory imaging mode, and then performs setting to disable the network connection to the communication network, and ends the imaging mode switching processing.
