Study on the testing for quality control of digital X-ray gastrointestinal machine / 中国医学装备

ABSTRACT

Objective:To study the testing method of quality control of digital X-ray gastrointestinal machine,so as to ensure safe and effective operation of the equipment.Methods:According to the National Health Industry Standard<Specification for Testing of Quality Control in Medical X-ray Diagnostic Equipment>(WS 76-2020),the quality control of digital X-ray machine for the stomach and intestine was tested.The multifunctional X-ray dosimeter and the corresponding phantom were adopted to detect the deviation of the tube voltage indication,the half-value layer(HVL),the Kerma rate of incident body surface air of the subjects who received fluoroscopy examination,the high-contrast resolution and other parameters of the digital X-ray gastrointestinal machine.And then,whether the testing of quality control of that complied with the requirement of national regulations were further evaluated.Results:The detection of quality control of digital X-ray gastrointestinal machine indicated that the maximum deviation values of the tube voltage indications of 81kV and 90kV were respectively 0.86%and 0.97%,and the repeatability of radiation output was 0.1%,and the HVL was 3.12mmAI,and the typical value and the maximum value of the Kerma rate of incident body surface air of the subjects who received fluoroscopy examination were respectively 5.316mGy/min and 18.63mGy/min,and the high-contrast resolution of fluoroscopy was 1.6 lp/mm,and the low-contrast resolution of fluoroscopy was 3.3%,and the vertical angle of the useful wire beam was<1.5°,and the deviations between the light field and each boundary of right,left,lower and upper boundaries of the radiation field were respectively(a1)=-0.6 cm,(a2)=-0.1 cm,(b1)=0 cm and(b2)=-0.7 cm.In addition,the horizontally and vertically relative deviations of range errors were respectively 0.3%and 0.5%.In the deviations of exposure times(t),the deviations of t=50ms and t=140ms were respectively 9.42%and 2.14%.The images did not have obvious artifact.The above results indicated that the testing of quality control of digital X-ray machine for the stomach and intestine complied with the requirement of national regulations.Conclusion:The testing of the quality control for digital X-ray gastrointestinal machine,which adopts multi-functional X-ray dosimeter and the corresponding phantom,can reflect the performance status of the equipment,and ensure the safe and effective operation of the equipment in clinical practice.
