Abstract
Since August of 1974, the Food and Drug Administration has been testing the performance of diagnostic x-ray equipment certified to be in compliance with the Federal Performance Standard. The testing is performed in user locations as well as in Federal laboratories. Testing to date has revealed the general level of performance of diagnostic x-ray equipment and specific problem areas that are common to several manufacturers. Results of routine field testing, more rigorous follow-up testing, and laboratory tests will be discussed.
