Filmless Radiography for Aerospace Applications
Abstract
The aim of this effort was to develop, deliver, and implement three systems for acquiring digital radiographic images of the requisite quality to meet Air Force aircraft inspection requirements. The systems employ storage phosphor technology and help to eliminate the chemical waste and delays with conventional radiography employing film. This effort has succeeded in developing improved large area storage phosphor imaging systems capable of achieving the requisite 2%-2T image quality requirement over a range of applications useful for aircraft inspections. Moreover, system performance and reliability have been evaluated, indicating that the system is suitable for use in the field.
