Description

Image quality and radiation protection can be optimised by means of quality assurance testing in accordance with the new Federal German regulations governing the handling of X-ray equipment (funtional testing and control of constancy of performance). The X-ray films of patients are examined according to quality criteria relating to the organs of which X-ray films are produced; the diagnostic pointers obtained from these X-ray films enable on-target counselling, taking into consideration the technical guidelines on the taking of X-ray films to produce best possible results.
