1、Designation: E1817 08 (Reapproved 2014)Standard Practice forControlling Quality of Radiological Examination by UsingRepresentative Quality Indicators (RQIs)1This standard is issued under the fixed designation E1817; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adopt

2、ion or, in the case of revision, the year of last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 This practice covers the radiological examination ofunique materials or p

3、rocesses, or both, for which convention-ally designed image quality indicators (IQIs), such as thosedescribed in Practices E747 and E1025, may be inadequate incontrolling the quality and repeatability of the radiologicalimage.1.2 Where appropriate, representative image quality indica-tors (RQIs) may

4、 also represent criteria levels of the acceptanceor rejection of images of discontinuities.1.3 This practice is applicable to most radiological methodsof examination.1.4 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is theresponsibility of t

5、he user of this standard to establish appro-priate safety and health practices and determine the applica-bility of regulatory limitations prior to use.2.

Summary of Practice4.1 The information from an RQI image may be used tocontrol all o

10、f the parameters necessary for production exami-nation images (which look essentially like the RQI images) andis particularly effective in the practice of radioscopic andtomographic techniques. Refer to Guides E1000 and E1441,respectively.4.2 The designer may also use the RQI, when in compliancewith

11、 the requirements set out in this practice, to set accept orreject criteria, as applicable, to that part design.5. Significance and Use5.1 The use of RQIs is a significant departure from normalpractice in industrial radiology because it is not a standarddesign and is dependent on the application, ma

Basis of Application6.1 The following items s

17、hall be agreed upon between thepurchaser and the supplier and specified in the contract or joborder:6.1.1 Nondestructive testing (NDT) personnel shall bequalified in accordance with a nationally or internationallyrecognized NDT personnel qualification practice or standardsuch as ANSI/ASNT CP-189, SN

18、T-TC-1A, NAS 410, or asimilar document. The practice or standard used and itsapplicable revision shall be specified in the contractual agree-ment between the using parties.6.1.2 Nondestructive Testing Agency EvaluationIf a sys-tematic assessment of the capability of an NDT agency isspecified, a docu

19、mented procedure such as that described inPractice E543 shall be used as the basis for evaluation.6.1.3 Quality LevelsQuality levels to be used shall bespecified in accordance with 7.1 and 7.2.6.1.4 System Performance Using RQIsNonconformancesin RQIs used to determine system performance shall bespec

20、ified in accordance with 8.1.1 8.1.3.6.1.5 RQI FabricationThe design and manufacture ofRQIs shall be specified in accordance with 8.3.1 and 8.3.2.6.1.6 Frequency of RQI UsageIf not in accordance with8.7.1, the frequency of RQI usage shall be specified inaccordance with 8.7.2.6.1.7 Accept and Reject

21、CriteriaIf used, acceptance levelsshall be specified in accordance with 8.8.1 and 8.8.2.7. Quality Levels7.1 There is no standard table of image quality levelsassociated with RQI images.7.2 Quality levels using RQIs shall be determined byagreement between the purchaser and the supplier and shall bes

22、pecified in the applicable job order or contract.8. Requirements8.1 System Performance Using RQIs:8.1.1 The manufacturing development of unique materialsor processes, or both, may produce a wide range of noncon-formances. The radiologic system should be capable of reveal-ing examples of the smallest

23、 deviations from the engineeringdrawing requirements in images of examined parts.8.1.2 The cognizant engineering organization for the partsbeing examined shall agree that the RQI (whether actual partsor fabricated) can be used to assess and verify image qualitywith regard to detection of all of the

24、nonconformances ofconcern.8.1.3 The choice of known nonconformances that the sys-tem should have the capability of revealing in the images shallbe determined between the purchaser and the supplier and shallbe specified in the applicable job order or contract.8.2 RQI RequirementsRadiologic image qual

25、ity require-ments shall be determined by RQIs that conform to thefollowing conditions:8.2.1 The geometry of the RQI shall be agreed upon by theuser and the cognizant engineering organization for the parts.8.2.2 The RQIs shall be identified permanently and referredto in the examination scanplan.8.2.3

26、 It shall be a requirement to keep an RQI register, ascanplan describing all of the parameters used to make theimages, and a precise technical description (including refer-ence images) of all of the imperfections or characteristics forwhich the RQI is being used.8.3 RQI Fabrication:8.3.1 The RQIs sh

27、all be fabricated (where they are notactual parts or sections from actual parts) from radiologicallysimilar material and from manufacturing process parameterssimilar to those of the parts to be examined.8.3.2 Large structures can be sectioned into smaller piecesto provide examples of nonconformances

28、, provided that theyare contained within a relevant geometry that produces aradiologic image similar to the original. Scatter radiation due topart geometric configuration can influence radiologic imagequality significantly.8.4 Number of RQIsThere is no limit to the number ofRQIs for the parts to be

29、examined, provided that each RQI isin compliance with the requirements stated in 8.1 8.3.8.5 RQI PlacementRQIs shall be exposed in strict com-pliance with the scanplan or shooting sketch. Unlike conven-tional IQIs, RQIs should be in the same position relative to thesource and detector as the part to

30、 be examined to represent thequality level accurately. When the RQI cannot be placed in thesame position relative to the source and detector as theexamination part, place the examination part in the directcenter of where the radiation beam is normal to the detector,and place the RQI further away fro

31、m this center.8.6 RQI Imaging:8.6.1 The RQI images with artifacts in the areas of interestshall be reimaged.8.6.2 The RQI image shall be provided, along with theexamination images, as part of the examination record.8.6.3 The complete set of imaging conditions shall berecorded and used when reviewing

32、 the reference images of thefeatures in the RQI or the part being examined, or both.8.7 Frequency of Use:8.7.1 In most applications, it is not practical to image theRQI with each exposure of the part(s) being examined, but itshould as a minimum be imaged before the commencementand at the conclusion

33、of the examination. This is applicablewhether the examination involves a single item or a batch ofsimilar items.8.7.2 Other frequencies of use shall be determined betweenthe purchaser and the supplier and shall be specified in theapplicable job order or contract.8.8 Acceptance Levels:8.8.1 The cogni

34、zant engineering organization for the partsbeing examined may also choose to use the RQI images asE1817 08 (2014)2reference images for indicating acceptable or rejectable condi-tions in the parts to be examined, provided that the original setof reference images is kept for reference during subsequen

35、t useof the RQI(s).8.8.2 The choice of known and quantified image(s) offeatures in the RQI to be used as accept or reject criteria shallbe determined between the purchaser and the supplier and shallbe specified in the applicable job order or contract.9. Precision and Bias9.1 No statement is made abo

36、ut either the precision or biasof this practice for controlling the radiologic quality of imagesmade from the examination of unique materials or processes,or both, since the result indicates merely whether there isconformance to the criteria for success specified in thispractice.10.
