ABSTRACT:
A collimated beam of gamma radiation is applied to a test object under non-destructive examination to produce a scattered gamma radiation field within which detectors are positioned to provide radiation energy level data of the field. Such measurement data is processed by comparison with reference data from a flawless object to provide differential scatter gamma spectra. The differential spectra are transformed by spatial/energy data processing to extract accurate location and size data with respect to any flaws present in the test object.
