X-ray Leakage Test

ADITHISRI offers leak test analysis for all forms of X-ray. A source leak test is to be conducted as a precautionary measure when service maintenance is performed on equipment emitting radiation.

• Industrial X-rays
• Medical X-ray machines
• X-ray scanning equipment's 
• X-ray Generators

A detailed report for each leak test including actual reading, backgrounds and all other associated information necessary will be provided for compliance of leak test reporting.

Radiation Leakage Test

In keeping with our commitment to quality and ensuring your regulatory compliance, Our leak testing service meets the AERB and International guidelines for sealed radioactive source leak testing. Our laboratory will test your samples for radioactive contamination quickly and accurately. To complete your sealed radioactive source leak tests, we will provide you with leak test kits and easy to follow instructions for sample collection.

In addition, our trained Radiation Safety Officers are also available to provide onsite leak test sample collection.

 Two options are offered:

Option 1 : One of our Radiation Safety Officer can go onsite to perform leak tests of your sources. The RSO can simultaneously train your staff on performing the test. The samples will be analysed at our laboratory and a leak test certificate will be issued.

Option 2: A leak testing kit can be sent to your facility with instructions. Once you have performed the required swipes, you can send the kit back to our laboratory by courier services for analysis. We will require the source make, model and serial number, your AERB license number, the samples name and date of sampling. We can also send you a sampling certificate to fill out together with the leak test kits.

If you already have leak test kits, you can send your samples for analysis to the following address:

Radiation QA Services

Medical imaging is an important part of diagnosis of many diseases and also plays an important role in improving the public health. The diagnostic procedures involve the use of ionizing radiation which can cause a serious harm to operator and the patient, if it is not properly controlled.  Although the radiation exposure connected with these procedures cannot be avoided, there are means to reduce it as much as possible. Therefore, the safety aspects of the radiation worker (operator) handling the equipment, the patient undergoing the test and others in the immediate vicinity of the installation is a major concern.

The regulator and the government agency in every country takes necessary steps to protect the patients, staff and the general public by ensuring that only safe and properly installed X-ray equipment's are used in the medical diagnostic X-ray facilities. This could be achieved through a proper Quality Assurance Program. The main objectives & needs of a Quality Assurance Program are to:

• Ensure proper functioning of the medical X-ray devices
• Reduce patient exposure
• Avoid unnecessary double exposures
• Reduce the costs of X-ray departments

The Quality Assurance Program consists of two activities:

 (i) regular monitoring of diagnostic X-ray equipments by performing Quality Assurance (QA) and (ii) Area Surveillance of the diagnosis room.

ü  Quality Assurance consists of a series of standardized tests developed to detect changes in X-ray equipment function from its original level of performance. The objective of such tests, when carried out routinely, allows prompt corrective action to maintain X-ray image quality and to ensure that the dose delivered by the equipment over a period of time is as low as reasonably achievable (ALARA).

ü  Area Surveillance consists of a series of surveys performed near radioactive materials or radiation producing machines to ensure that the radioactive contamination and/or exposure levels are as low as reasonably achievable (ALARA).

To achieve this goal of ALARA principle, it is essential that a Quality Assurance and Area Surveillance program need to be developed and implemented in all medical diagnostic departments. It is important to note that the ultimate responsibility for quality assurance rests with the physician in charge of the x-ray facility. But at the same time, it is also the responsibility of the regulatory agency by placing proper regulations and guidelines to monitor these facilities.

Quality Assurance Testing include:

• Measurement of Kvp, Exposure Time, Dose
• Congruence Test
• Linearity of mA Loading Stations, Timer
• Total Filtration
• Tube & Collimator Leakage Test
• Focal Spot Test
• Central Beam Alignment Test
• Area Surveillance and Shielding Tests
