Abstract

A performance specification for dosemeters intended for use as secondary standards for the measurement of X-ray air kerma for diagnostic or mammographic beam qualities is proposed. Important influence quantities are listed and the performance requirements given for ionisation chamber, measuring assembly and stability check device. Consideration is also given to the "useability" of the secondary standard and the security of any external computer software used operationally with the instrument.
