Certified Radiographic Interpreter (CRI)

American Welding Society
Radiographic testing is the traditional method of nondestructive examination of welds to determine whether they comply with the acceptance criteria in an industry specification. These challenges require the Certified Radiographic Interpreter to become knowledgeable in most all aspects of the exposure of welds to x-ray radiation and to recognize when film exposures are outside accepted limits for radiographic quality.
