1、Designation:E100098(Reapproved 2009)Standard Guide forRadioscopy1This standard is issued under the fixed designation E1000;the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or,in the case of revision,the year of last revision.A number in parentheses indicates th
2、e year of last reapproval.Asuperscript epsilon()indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1.Scope1.1 This guide is for tutorial purposes only and to outline thegeneral principles of radioscopic imaging.1.2 This guide describes practices and image quality mea-suring systems
3、for real-time,and near real-time,nonfilmdetection,display,and recording of radioscopic images.Theseimages,used in materials examination,are generated bypenetrating radiation passing through the subject material andproducing an image on the detecting medium.Although thedescribed radiation sources are
4、 specifically X-ray and gamma-ray,the general concepts can be used for other radiationsources such as neutrons.The image detection and displaytechniques are nonfilm,but the use of photographic film as ameans for permanent recording of the image is not precluded.NOTE1For information purposes,refer to
