The invention relates to a radiography system for computed radiography, comprising an X-ray apparatus (1) with an X-ray source (7), a plurality of image cassettes (9) for producing digital images, a cassette reading means (13) for reading radiographic images (19) stored in the image cassettes (9) after X-ray exposure, and a data processing means (14) connected to the cassette reading means (13), the data processing means (14) being arranged to process the radiographic images (19) read from the image cassettes (9). In order to provide such a radiography system, whereby patient data (18) can be associated with an X-ray image (19) in an easy and reliable manner, the invention proposes to make provision for a cassette storage means (10) associated with the X-ray apparatus (1) for storing the image cassettes (9), wherein the storage means is provided with an identification means (12) connected to the data processing means (14), the identification means being arranged to identify the image cassettes (9) stored in the cassette storage means (10).
