Abstract

Advances in radioscopic testing have occurred very recently with the availability of the ASTM radioscopic specifications and new equipment designs. Improvements in image quality and variable geometry portable x-ray systems lead the advances. Cost reductions are realized when these systems are utilized for immediate feedback for process control. Storage of as- built product images allows for future reference and additional processing of these digital images for failure analysis.
