MANUAL
Performing quality control (QC) tests for general radiography 
applications (DT 2 B and DT 2 C)
The following procedures must be performed daily, weekly or annually as
indicated. When used in a mobile application it is required to perform QC
after every move.
The reason for performing quality control tests is to determine if any
significant image quality variation or deterioration has occurred which may
require corrective action. Comparing the results of the tests with the reference
values previously established does this.
This procedure allows the operator to take the necessary preventive actions
before any image quality loss can take place.
