A method of x-ray machine calibration based on analysis of the emitted x-ray beam is described. An instrument has been developed and tested which measures pkv., ma., output waveform, and time. By examining the final product of the generatortube combination, the radiation output, one has the best opportunity to detect alterations of the factors which may lead to significant change in the resulting radiation beam.
