    1) The document outlines various formulae used in radiography including those relating to half-life, exposure, geometrical unsharpness, quality level determinations using IQIs, density calculations, and more. 2) Key formulae include calculations for half-life using remaining/original quantity, exposure using milliampere-time or curie-time, geometrical unsharpness using source size, distance and thickness, and equivalent penetrameter sensitivity using job thickness and visible hole/wire diameter. 3) Density can be calculated from original intensity, transmitted intensity and thickness, while quality levels are determined using equivalent penetrameter sensitivity percentages based on IQI and job thicknesses.

    RT Formulae

    Half life

    =
    2

    N = Remaining quantity or final activity


    No = Original quantity or Original activity
    n = Number of half lives
    -------------------------------------------------------------
    HVL / TVL

    =
    2

    N = Final intensity
    No = Original intensity
    n = Number of HVLs

    1 TVL = 3.33 HVL


    -------------------------------------------------------------
    Exposure
    Exposure = Milli Ampere X Time
    Or
    Exposure = Curie X Time
    -------------------------------------------------------------
    Exposure Factor

    I = Activity in curie
    T = Time in minutes
    D = S.F.D in inches
    -------------------------------------------------------------
    Exposure conditions formula

    I = Activity in curie or Current in mA


    T = Time
    D = S.F.D
    -------------------------------------------------------------
    Inverse Square Law

    I1= Intensity at distance D1


    I2= Intensity at distance D2
    -------------------------------------------------------------
    Geometrical Unharness

    Ug = Geometrical Unsharpness
    F = Source size
    t = Distance from film to source side of object (may be thickness)
    D = Source to object distance (not SFD)
    -------------------------------------------------------------
    Hole type IQI – Equivalent Penetrameter Sensitivity in %

    100
    =
    2

    X = Job thickness
    T = Penetrameter thickness
    H = Diameter of perceptible hole
    -------------------------------------------------------------
    Quality level

    e.g. Quality level 2-1T means IQI thickness shall be 2% of job thickness and 1T hole shall be visible.
    EPS of any quality level can be found by formula
    100
    =
    2

    by choosing any thickness X. You will get the same answer for any other thickness too. It is convenient to take job
    thickness as 100 mm.

    -------------------------------------------------------------
    Wire type IQI – Equivalent Penetrameter Sensitivity in %

    100
    =

    X = Job thickness
    T = Perceptible wire thickness
    -------------------------------------------------------------
    Density
    =

    D = Density
    Io = Original Intensity
    It = Transmitted Intensity
    -------------------------------------------------------------
