The utilization of X- rays in the medical field is one way to improve public health. X- rays are one of the applications of radiation for radiodiagnostics. X-ray examination using X- rays canprovide imformation about the human body without the needfor surgery. In the use of radiation tecnology it is realized that in addition to its use for radio diagnostics, X-rays harm the enviromenment and living thing around them, especially radiation worker . The impact that can result in cancer due to the accumulation of radiation dose exposure received by the body exceeds the specified threshold dose. Therefore safetystandard guidlines that contain basicrequrements for quality control ( Quality Control- QC ).
