About the X-Ray Program

Information

All machine sources of ionizing radiation must be registered with the Department. There are over 700 facilities with approximately 1500 X-ray tubes throughout North Dakota. X-ray machines are utilized in a wide range of activities including industrial (airport baggage surveillance, potato packaging, weld verification), research (spectroscopy, diffraction, fluorescence), and healing arts applications for both human and animal patients.

The North Dakota Radiological Health Rules (NDRHR) contain requirements for All X-ray equipment operated in North Dakota. Inspection compliance is based on these requirements. Inspections are prioritized according to potential impact on public and operator health and safety. Inspection frequency ranges from yearly (mammography facilities) to once every seven years (veterinarian). The lead Federal agency involved with X-ray machines is the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) as authorized by the Federal Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act of 1973. The FDA provides training, equipment and technical expertise to all State radiation control programs.

The North Dakota Radiation Control Program (RCP) has a contract with the FDA to inspect mammography facilities in North Dakota. The MQSA inspectors must be certified by the FDA. Certification requires 6 weeks of training, as well as the passing of both written and performance evaluations. North Dakota has two certified inspectors. To maintain certification, inspectors must perform a minimum of 12 inspections annually and obtain 15 hours of mammography education every three years. The FDA conducts audit inspections with each inspector on an annual basis. Annual facility inspections have been conducted since 1992.
