Closed-Circuit Television System for X-Ray Inspection
Use of a closed-circuit television system as the direct-imaging device in conjunction with x-ray as a radiation source has made possible an instantaneous, in motion, inspection system for studying materials and structures. The TV camera uses a small-area x-ray sensitive pickup tube as the sensing device. The x-ray image displayed on the monitor picture tube is enlarged approximately 30×. The system performance is equivalent to results obtained from conventional x-ray imaging techniques for material thicknesses up to ¼ in. of steel.
