    The X-ray tube filtration, measured in aluminum equivalent, changes greatly with voltage. This study provides corrected dose values, accounting for voltage variations to improve accuracy in radiation measurements.

    Area of Science:

    • Medical Physics
    • Radiological Sciences
    • X-ray Imaging Technology

    Context:

    • X-ray tube assemblies are crucial in diagnostic imaging.
    • Effective filtration impacts radiation dose and image quality.
    • Variations in filtration can lead to inaccurate dose reporting.

    Purpose:

    • To investigate the voltage-dependent nature of X-ray tube filtration.
    • To correct previously reported dose values affected by filtration inconsistencies.
    • To provide accurate dose data across a range of X-ray tube voltages and filtrations.

    Summary:

    • The aluminum equivalent of X-ray tube filtration is not constant and varies significantly with applied tube voltage.
    • Previous dose assessments neglected this variability, causing substantial discrepancies.
