Abstract
The results of an inventory of medical X-ray apparatus in Dutch hospitals are presented and discussed. An inquiry covering a total of 226 hospitals yielded a response of 92%. The questionnaires contained preprinted data from an earlier inventory of registered X-ray apparatus at the Ministry of Physical Planning, Housing and the environment. At present the total number of X-ray apparatus in Dutch hospital is 3,008, of which 2,820 are of the diagnostic X-ray type. The accumulated data show that approximately 8 milion X-ray examinations were performed in hospitals during the year 1984, corresponding to 0.56 X-ray examinations per inhabitant per year.
