X-Ray vs. AMI

AMI and X-ray are complementary techniques that are frequently found in the same laboratories, but they reveal different features. Where X-ray relies on differential attenuation of the X-ray energy, AMI relies on material change. The practical result is that AMI is orders of magnitude more sensitive for detecting air space type defects such as voids, delaminations and cracks.
