Abstract:On basis of the "The measurement standard of public service for the medical diagnostic X-ray dosimeters calibration" at National Institute of Metrology of China and according to the requirement in IEC61267—2005 reports, the method for establishing the measurement standard of the new medical diagnostic X-ray dosimeters calibrating conditions is investigated . Two key problems for the calibrating conditions establishment are presented,using invasive measurement of X-ray tube voltage in medical diagnostic radiology to determine the practical peak voltage (PPV) and determination of the RQR series. The first measurement standard of the medical diagnostic X-ray dosimeters calibration is established in China, which meets the requirements of IEC61267—2005 reports. It provides the essential insurance for the accuracy and reliability of quantity values of the nuclear medical diagnostic X-ray equipment within China.
