Image interpretation
Online Image Interpretation training designed for NDT professionals, inspectors, assistants, trainees, and personnel involved in reviewing, evaluating, or supporting radiographic inspection activities. This course provides foundational knowledge of radiographic image evaluation, image quality, discontinuity recognition, artifacts, and the difference between indications, discontinuities, and defects.
Participants will learn how discontinuities may originate from material manufacturing, processing, welding, or in-service conditions, and how radiographic images are evaluated to support accurate interpretation and inspection decisions.
This course supports image interpretation awareness and technical understanding in alignment with applicable company procedures, customer requirements, industry practices, and the responsibilities involved in evaluating radiographic images for quality and compliance.
