Abstract

A method has been devised to enable users of half- and full-wave rectified x-ray sets to match the revised National Bureau of Standards (NBS) x-ray beam qualities obtained with a constant potential generator. The method provides a rapid technique for determining the added filter necessary to attain the same first half-value layers and nearly the same homogeneity coefficients as NBS. Beam qualities from 100 to 250 kVcp have been duplicated and used to perform blind calibrations at four beam qualities on each of two ion chambers owned by the National Bureau of Standards.
