This International Standard specifies the performance and some related constructional
requirements of DIAGNOSTIC DOSIMETERS intended for the measurement of AIR KERMA, AIR
KERMA LENGTH PRODUCT or AIR KERMA RATE, in photon radiation fields used in RADIOGRAPHY,
including mammography, RADIOSCOPY and COMPUTED TOMOGRAPHY (CT), for X-radiation with
generating potentials not greater than 150 kV.
This International Standard is applicable to the performance of DOSIMETERS with VENTED
IONIZATION CHAMBERS and/or SEMICONDUCTOR DETECTORS as used in X-ray diagnostic imaging.
