Diagnostic X-Ray System

"Diagnostic x-ray system" means an x-ray system designed for irradiation of any part of the body for the purpose of diagnosis or visualization.

"X-ray tube" means any electron tube which is designed to be used primarily for the production of x-rays.

This program was created to protect the general public, health care employees, and patients from excessive radiation emitted from diagnostic x-ray equipment. Our mission is to minimize exposure to radiation encountered by these individuals. 

Program staff test diagnostic x-ray equipment for proper functioning, make practitioners and health care workers aware of proper techniques to minimize exposure, and monitor procedures utilized during diagnostic x-ray examinations.

  • For a dental or podiatric unit, the fee is $30 for each tube. For example: one tube = $30. Two tubes = $60. Three tubes = $90.
  • For a veterinary unit, the fee is $25 for each tube. For example: one tube = $25. Two tubes = $50. Three tubes = $75.
  • For all other units such as those in a hospital, clinic, or a chiropractor or physician's office, the fee is $95 for each tube. For example: one tube = $95. Two tubes = $190. Three tubes = $285.
  • The maximum permit fee is $500. This means that if a facility's calculated permit fee would be over $500 (for example a hospital with thirteen tubes which would calculate to $1,180), the facility would only pay $500. No facility should ever pay more than $500 for a single year's permit.
  • A late fee is due if a facility does not renew its permit within 30 days of its expiration date. The late fee is half of the normal permit fee. For example, if a facility's normal permit fee is $30, the late fee would be $15, for a total of $45. However, this total should not exceed the maximum permit fee of $500 for a single year.

This program was developed by the FDA to improve early diagnostic capabilities in detecting breast cancer. Its mission is to evaluate equipment performance, qualifications of personnel involved with mammography and to ensure continuing accreditation of these facilities. All MQSA inspections currently performed in Oklahoma are done by FDA inspectors.
