Abstract
This paper discusses a methodology which uses a specially developed computer program that enables estimation of output parameters of an x-ray machine from a single test exposure. Exposure at skin entrance values can be estimated, as well as using the data from the program for organ dose estimates. To perform the estimation procedure, curves and analytical expressions for the curves are presented for conversion of half-value layers to total filtration and for conventional mR/mAs output curves. Results are given showing that the estimation procedure is reasonably accurate.
