What is the leakage radiation limit for X

The leakage radiation from the diagnostic source assembly measured at a distance of 1 meter in any direction from the source shall not exceed 0.88 milligray (mGy) air kerma (vice 100 milliroentgen (mR) exposure) in 1 hour when the x-ray tube is operated at the leakage technique factors.

Which NCRP regulation is used for leakage radiation from the x

1. leakage radiation. NCRP Report No. 102 states the exposure switch on mobile radiographic units shall be so arranged that the operator can stand at least 2 m (6 feet) from the patient, the x-ray tube, and the useful beam.

What is the leakage radiation limits for the tube 1'm from the housing?

(1) The leakage radiation from the tube housing assembly, measured at a distance of one meter in any direction from the source, must not exceed 100 milliroentgens in one hour when the X-ray tube is operated at its leakage technique factors.

What amount of leakage radiation is acceptable at a distance of 1'm from the protective housing?

Leakage radiation must be less that 1 mGy_a/hr (100mR/hr) at a distance of 1m from the protective housing. Control Panel must indicate the conditions of exposure and indicate when the x-ray tube is energized.
