Non-destructive testing - Qualification of radiographic film digitisation systems - Part 2: Minimum requirements (ISO 14096-2:2005)
ISO 14096-2:2005 specifies three film-digitisation quality classes for the requirements of non-destructive testing. The selected class depends on the radiation energy, penetrated material thickness and the quality level of the original radiographic film. ISO 14096-2:2005 does not address signal processing, display and storage of the digitised data.

Diese Europäische Norm legt für die Filmdigitalisierung drei Qualitätsklassen für die Anforderungen der zerstörungsfreien Prüfung fest. Die Auswahl dieser Qualitätsklassen hängt von der Strahlungsenergie, der durchstrahlten Wanddicke und der Prüfklasse des originalen Röntgenfilms ab. Diese Europäische Norm behandelt weder die Signalverarbeitung noch die Darstellung oder Speicherung der digitalisierten Daten.
Essais non destructifs - Qualification des systèmes de numérisation des films radiographiques - Partie 2: Exigences minimales (ISO 14096-2:2005)
L'ISO 14096-2:2005 définit trois classes de qualité de numérisation de film en raison des exigences relatives aux essais non destructifs (END). Les classes sélectionnées dépendent de l'énergie de radiation, de l'épaisseur du matériau pénétré et du niveau de qualité de la radiographie originale. L'ISO 14096-2:2005 ne s'adresse pas au traitement du signal, à l'affichage et au stockage des données numérisées.

Overview
EN ISO 14096-2:2020 (ISO 14096-2:2005) sets the minimum requirements for the qualification of radiographic film digitisation systems used in non‑destructive testing (NDT). It defines three film‑digitisation quality classes and establishes the basic criteria that ensure information from industrial X‑ray and gamma radiographic films is preserved when converted to digital form. The standard explicitly excludes requirements for signal processing, display and long‑term storage of digitised data.
Key Topics and Requirements
- Film‑digitisation quality classes: Three classes - DS, DB, DA - categorise digitiser performance and intended use.
- DS: Enhanced technique - minimal loss of signal‑to‑noise ratio and spatial resolution. Intended for digital archiving.
- DB: Intermediate - allows some image quality reduction; for digital analysis where original films are archived.
- DA: Basic - permits further reduced image quality; for digital analysis with archived originals.
- Minimum density range and sensitivity (Table 1):
- Defines required optical density ranges per class (e.g., DS has the widest range).
- Specifies digital resolution (bits) requirements for converters (e.g., DS typically ≥12 bits; DB/DA ≥10 bits).
- Requires a minimum density contrast sensitivity (ΔD_CS) - ensuring small density variations are resolved.
- Spatial resolution requirements (Table 2):
- Minimum pixel size and MTF20% (modulation transfer function at 20%) specified by radiation energy and class.
- These parameters account for the inherent unsharpness of radiographic film at different X‑/gamma‑ray energies.
- Definitions and measurements: The standard references Part 1 (EN ISO 14096‑1) for quantitative measurements, standard reference films and qualitative control methods.
Applications
- Digital archiving of industrial radiographs - selecting DS‑class digitisation systems to preserve archival quality.
- Digital analysis and image evaluation - using DB/DA systems where some quality tradeoffs are acceptable while originals remain archived.
- Procurement and qualification of film digitiser hardware for NDT service providers and inspection authorities.
- Quality assurance in radiographic inspection workflows to ensure digitised images meet minimum diagnostic criteria.
Who Should Use This Standard
- NDT practitioners and radiography laboratories
- Digitiser manufacturers and system integrators
- Quality managers, inspectors and certification bodies
- Archivists responsible for preserving radiographic evidence
Related Standards
- EN ISO 14096‑1 - Definitions, image quality measurements, standard reference film
- EN 444, EN 1435, EN 12681, ISO 5579 - general radiographic examination and weld/foundry radiography standards
EN ISO 14096‑2:2020 is essential for organizations that digitise radiographic films for inspection, archiving or automated analysis and need a clear, auditable baseline for digitiser performance in NDT contexts.

Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies
(ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO
technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been
established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and
non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the
International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.
International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.
The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards
adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an
International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent
rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
ISO 14096-2 was prepared by the European Committee for Standardization (CEN) (as EN 14096-2:2003) and
was adopted, under a special “fast-track procedure”, by Technical Committee ISO/TC 135, Non-destructive
testing, Subcommittee SC 5, Radiation methods, in parallel with its approval by the ISO member bodies.
ISO 14096 consists of the following parts, under the general title Non-destructive testing — Qualification of
radiographic film digitisation systems:
Part 1: Definitions, quantitative measurements of image quality parameters, standard reference film and
qualitative control
