Quality control (QC) tests play a crucial role for patients' dose management in diagnostic radiography. X-ray tube focal spot size is the most important index for QC of x-ray machines. The focal spot size is typically estimated using pinhole or the star pattern. However, the results by such the techniques are rather subjective. This disadvantage could be decreased in digital radiography when an image brightness distribution histogram is in use. Average value of brightness correlates to the focal spot size (significance 0.99). This technique does not require any test object. The results demonstrate that the above approach could become an important part of the QC for digital x-ray diagnostic radiography equipment
