Abstract

This study presents the 2019 findings of the acceptance testing and routine quality control (QC) for the general radiographic X-ray equipment such as film/screen fixed systems in Malaysia. Acceptance testing and routine QC of the diagnostic X-ray imaging equipment are the requirements for the standard radiation apparatus and should be compared to the requirements for European and RADIATION SAFETY STANDARD HR001:2010 legislation, which were considered the standard values of all general radiographic X-ray equipment since it identical to the manufacture's data. The general radiographic X-ray system test was conducted in the Biophysics lab, University Science Malaysia, and it has failed to meet the required QC guidelines, whereby one or more faults were identified. The major failures identified were minor, requiring attention by the suppliers at the next routine service. The suppliers were requested to investigate the issues and take the necessary corrective action. A review of the QC results highlights the need to perform comprehensive acceptance and routine testing of the systems.
