This study aims to investigate how accurate are TASMICS and TASMIP models in predicting the X-ray output of some Conventional Radiology X-ray units with high frequency generators. The X-ray output in microgray per milliampere seconds (µGy/mAs) at 100 cm from the X-ray tube was determined for selected high voltages and taking into account the total filtration. The X-ray output was then measured directly with the multipurpose detectors (MPD), Raysafe X2. The maximum relative error between measured and predicted values was found to be equal to 20%. The maximum relative error between measured and predicted values obtained demonstrates the difficulty of accurately predicting the X-ray tube output using TASMICS and TASMIP models since they are based on fixed anode angles and different composition of the tungsten anode.

Performance evaluation of computed tomography is not significant in the Republic of Cameroon in general and more particularly in the city of Yaoundé. Therefore, this work aimed to analyze image performances of 05 CT scanners in 05 medical facilities in the city of Yaoundé, by using the Catphan 700 phantom and test procedures of the Atomic Energy Agency. Five quality control tests were performed on each CT-Scanner. All the CT scanners evaluated showed good results and were not disapproved in three of the five tests performed. The difference between the measured spatial resolution for each of the five CT scanners and the spatial resolution specified by the manufacturer was very high. The low contrast resolution of four of the five CT scanners was found low when compared to the low contrast resolution specified by the manufacturers.
