Abstract
Actual progress of applied radiation plays a highly important role in medical radiology. In practice, generated materials optimize the process by decreasing the level of X-ray absorption. It has negative environmental effects. The objective of this study was to investigate the intensity radiographic image attenuated by barium sulfate filled rubber compound by using fluoroscopic images recorded with a digital camera. Method: formation of a barium sulfate filled rubber compound 0, 5, 10, 15, 20 phr into 3, 6, 9 mm thick sheets. The image processing consisted of an x-ray generator, fluoroscopic images, digital camera and computer device. Analysis process of method from intensity radiographic image using the ImageJ program. Result: analysis of the attenuation coefficient value from the voltage value presented lower levels of attenuation coefficient than those of the lowest voltage. Moreover, a greater ratio of the barium sulfate filled rubber compound and thicker had higher levels attenuation coefficient. It can therefore be concluded that the rubber-compounded barium sulphate could be used as a guide to create radiation protection equipment and to develop radiation protection for other research techniques.
