Abstract
In general, ionizing radiation and in particular X-rays plays a very important role in medical examinations for diagnostic purposes. The rapid growth of the number of procedures for diagnostic reason in medicine as a result led to increase the number of equipment for X ray generation, which consequently has increased the patients dose and in the same time is increased the risk of malignant diseases. Measurement parameters of quality assessment for X radiation generators are done at nine different diagnostic centers of public sector in Kosovo during the period 2014-2015. Measurements consist on accuracy of tube voltage, reproducibility of output voltage, total filtration of the x-ray tube and delivered radiation dose. Measurements were performed using Multimeter PTW NOMEX and DAP (Dose Area Product) Meter PTW Diamentor CM.
