The X-ray dose data is extracted from the X-ray Dose Test Report for the Green Smart.
X-ray Dose Test Report for the Green Smart maintains dosimetric evaluation that the
VATEC H dental diagnostic system meets all requirements specified in the IEC Collateral
Standard. To limit unnecessary exposure to the patient, operator or other staff, the Green

DAP (Dose Area Product) is a quantity used in assessing the radiation risk from diagnostic
X-ray examination procedures. It is defined as the absorbed dose multiplied by the area
irradiated, expressed in gray square centimeters (mGy·cm
2
). Despite the limitation, DAP is
the best way to predict effective dose value and currently the most convenient method for
patient doses monitoring.
PHE (Public Health England) recommends that any national reference dose that
achievable dose (DAP) value of 250 [mGy·cm2] for a clinical protocol for a standard
male patient.
