Abstract

This study aims to develop a cost-effective and accurate prototype for monitoring X-ray radiation leakage using an Internet of Things (IoT)-based system. The primary goal is to design and test a radiation dose measurement tool equipped with a Geiger-Müller detector and an ESP-32 microprocessor, integrated with the cloud-based platform ThingSpeak for real-time data communication. The prototype was evaluated for its operational performance and ability to detect radiation leakage from Mobile X-ray and Fluoroscopy tubes. Experimental results show that the device achieved a measurement error of less than 5% when compared to the SE International Ranger survey meter. In Mobile X-ray testing, the highest error was recorded in Area 4 (left) at 4.00%, and the lowest in Area 3 (right) at 1.63%. In Fluoroscopy testing, the highest error occurred in Area 3 (right) at 4.80%, and the lowest in Area 4 (left) at 1.43%. Both the prototype and the standard survey meter confirmed that leakage levels from the tested equipment complied with Indonesia’s Ministry of Health Regulation No. HK.02.02/V/5771/2018, maintaining radiation levels (L) below 1 mGy/h.
