1 Linear extrapolation or interpolation may be made for an x-ray tube potential (kVp) not listed in the table above (e.g., in the column entitled "Other X-ray Systems" operated at 20 kVp and 95 kVp, the minimum HVL required would be 0.2 and 2.6 millimeters of aluminum respectively).
2 "Specified Dental Systems" means any dental x-ray system designed for use with intraoral image receptors and manufactured after December 1, 1980.
3 "Other X-Ray Systems" means all x-ray systems required to meet the provisions of Sections 360.50, 360.60, 360.75, 360.90 (except "Specified Dental Systems") and 360.100 of this Part. Half-value layer requirements for mammography systems are specified in Section 360.71(e) of this Part.
