Overview

Quality control assessment evaluates diagnostic radiography equipment performance across southern Benin, indicating baseline safety compliance.

Key Points

  • Diagnostic radiography machines met safety limits for dose reproducibility and exposure time accuracy below 10 ms, but some units showed alignment flaws.
  • Five of seven evaluated machines passed exposure time and beam alignment tests, whereas one unit failed the beam filtration threshold at 70 kVp and above.
  • Assessment using international radiation protection standards establishes baseline quality control data for diagnostic radiography facilities across the region.
