DOE-HDBK-1109-97
Radiological Safety Training for Radiation-Producing (X-Ray) Devices
Instructor=s Guide
X-Ray Device Control Office: A team that establishes X-ray device program requirements and standards,
provides X-ray device radiation protection consultation, and serves as the central point of contact for the
management/control of X-ray devices. This function may have a facility-specific name.
X-ray device custodian: A person designated by line management as responsible for specific X-ray
devices. This individual is responsible for designating the operators of specific X-ray devices, arranging
for the operators to attend X-ray safety training, assisting in the development and maintenance of the X-ray
device SOP, familiarizing operators with the X-ray device SOP, maintaining records of operator training
and safety interlock checks, serving as the point of contact for the line organization's X-ray devices, and
coordinating surveys with the X-Ray Device Control Office. An X-ray device custodian may also be an
X-ray device operator.
X-ray device operator: An individual designated in writing by the X-ray-device custodian and qualified
by training and experience to operate a specific X-ray device.
X-ray diffraction: The scattering of X-rays by matter with accompanying variation in intensity in
different directions due to interference effects.
X-ray installation: One or more X-ray systems, the surrounding room or controlled area, and the
installation enclosure.
X-ray power supply: The portion of an X-ray device that generates the accelerating voltage and current
for the X-ray tube.
X-ray source housing: An enclosure directly surrounding an X-ray tube that provides attenuation of the
radiation emitted by the X-ray tube. The X-ray source housing typically has an aperture through which the
useful beam is transmitted.
X-ray system: An assemblage of components for the controlled generation of X-rays.
X-ray tube: An electron tube that is designed for the conversion of electrical energy to X-ray energy.
