Radiography overexposures



The equipment available and the required operating procedures are adequate

to allow radiographers to keep themselves safe.  The problem lies in the

market forces operating in the non-destructive testing industry.  Safety

doesn't make money for anyone.  Speed is paramount and will remain so for as

long as the industry is structured the way it is.  Radiographers are easy to

come by and expendable.   Change that if you want to change the safety

culture.
