In today’s healthcare environment, X-ray machines are essential diagnostic tools used across hospitals, urgent care centers, and dental clinics. But with their widespread use comes significant responsibility. Without regular X-ray machine inspections, you risk poor image quality, patient safety violations, and non-compliance with federal and state regulations.
At MR Biomed Tech Services, we deliver certified X-ray machine inspection services tailored for healthcare facilities throughout Houston, Dallas, Austin, San Antonio, and Fort Worth. Whether you're managing a high-volume radiology department or a private clinic, our skilled biomedical technicians help ensure your systems are accurate, fully compliant, and secured with AES-based data protection.
Why X-Ray Machine Inspection is Critical
X-ray machines expose patients and operators to ionizing radiation. Even slight deviations in system calibration can result in:
- Excessive radiation exposure
- Inaccurate or unreadable images
- Violation of the Texas Department of State Health Services (DSHS) and the FDA regulations
- Downtime and failed inspections during audits or accreditation reviews
Routine inspection and maintenance help prevent these issues while maximizing the lifespan of your equipment.
Don’t wait for an audit to uncover an issue—schedule regular inspections to stay compliant and protect your patients.
What We Inspect in an X-Ray Machine
Our multi-point X-ray machine inspection covers both mechanical and electronic systems, ensuring optimal performance and patient safety. Here’s what’s included:
Radiation Output Testing
- Ensures the correct radiation dose is delivered
- Verifies tube voltage (kVp), current (mA), and exposure time
Collimator and Beam Alignment
- Ensures accurate targeting of X-rays to minimize unnecessary exposure
Image Quality Evaluation
- Checks resolution, contrast, density, and sharpness
- Identifies artifacts or degradation in image clarity
Safety Systems Inspection
- Examines warning lights, interlocks, and emergency stop mechanisms
Mechanical and Electrical Functionality
- Verifies smooth movement of the table, tube stand, and control panel
- Checks wiring, cables, and grounding to prevent electrical hazards
AES Data Encryption Testing (Digital X-Ray Systems)
- Confirms AES-256 encryption for image storage and transmission
- Ensures HIPAA-compliant data handling for digital radiography (DR/CR systems)
How Often Should X-Ray Machines Be Inspected?
Texas law and industry best practices recommend:
- Annually for general use
- Biannually for high-volume facilities
- After repairs or part replacements
- Before major audits or accreditations
We provide detailed inspection reports to help you stay compliant with Texas DSHS, FDA, and The Joint Commission.
Who Needs X-Ray Inspections?
Our services are ideal for:
- Hospitals and ERs
- Orthopedic and chiropractic clinics
- Dental offices
- Family medicine and urgent care clinics
- Imaging centers and radiology departments
Whether you rely on portable X-ray units, C-Arms, panoramic dental systems, or digital radiography equipment, our team has the expertise to keep your imaging devices performing safely, accurately, and in full compliance.
The Role of AES in Digital X-Ray Security
Modern digital X-ray systems often store and transmit patient images through local networks or cloud platforms. Without AES encryption, this sensitive data is vulnerable to interception—exposing both your patients and your practice to serious legal and compliance risks.
At MR Biomed Tech Services, we test for AES-256 (Advanced Encryption Standard) compliance to ensure:
- Encrypted image storage on PACS
- Secure wireless image transmission
- Protected USB or external backup
AES compliance is vital for HIPAA and required in many hospital IT security policies.
