Re[2]: Wart Removal

["William CTR Kolb"<William.CTR.Kolb@faa.gov>]

     I've had pretty good luck with the Victoreen 440RF/D.  According to 
     the manufacturer, it is able to resolve 0.02 mR/h from 15 kilovolt 
     X-rays. It's also immune to rf noise. I like the condenser R-meter 
     too, but it's not nearly as convenient.

  Dear Lew et al.
         A query about dosimetry for the X-rays you used in the past to
treat the above skin condition. The reason for my query is my attempt to 
dose unfiltered X-rays. You say you used a Victoreen condenser R-meter to 
dose almost unfiltered 35 kVp X-rays. I'm not familar with the meter but 
would it have allowed you to dose the very low photon energies that you 
were probably interested in to treat the skin condition? Does anyone know 
of a perhaps more modern instrument that can be used for dosing the 
so-called  'Grenz' rays?
