X Rays and X-Ray Regulations

- Summary
- Metrics

Abstract

The regulations on the handling of X rays are very similar to the regulations on standard radiation protection. The X-ray regulations in the European Union apply to those X-ray tubes and X-ray installations in which electrons are accelerated at least to 5 keV and in which they are limited to a maximum energy of 1 MeV. All installations in which electrons can be accelerated to energies beyond 1 MeV are subject to the regulations of standard radiation protection.
