  • Title: Constancy check of beam quality in conventional diagnostic X-ray equipment.
    Author: Costa AM, Badin RS, Leite MS, Caldas LV.
    Journal: Appl Radiat Isot; 2008 Oct; 66(10):1403-5. PubMed ID: 18434171.
    Abstract:
    A tandem ionization chamber was developed for quality control programs of X-ray equipment used in conventional radiography and mammography. A methodology for the use of the tandem chamber in the constancy check of diagnostic X-ray beam qualities was established. The application at a medical X-ray imaging facility of this established methodology is presented. The use of the tandem chamber in the constancy check of diagnostic X-ray beam qualities is a useful method to control the performance of the X-ray equipment.
