The intent is to regulate, license, control, and collect fees for x-ray radiation-emitting machines to ensure the safety of residents. Facility fees are $50, and $25 per tube.  ## Regulations for Portable X-ray Equipment Idaho has very few regulations when it comes to x-rays, especially portable ones. There are minimum safety requirements and operator qualifications to take note of. The only rule that specifically applies to a mobile device is as follows: “If the radiation-producing machine is used as a mobile device, a central headquarters must be used.” This is for the application process.

To be sure of the most up-to-date laws, contact your local and state agencies. ## Additional Resources **Idaho Department of Health and Welfare** Bureau of Laboratories 2220 Old Penitentiary Road Boise, ID 83712-8299 **Idaho Radiology License ** 1755 Westgate Drive Boise, ID 83720 Phone: 208-327-7000 Fax: 208-327-7005 Tags: [Portable X-ray Regulations](https://www.mavenimaging.com/blog/tag/portable-x-ray-regulations) ![Chad Hutchison](https://app.hubspot.com/settings/avatar/ce6d7639c6372ffe05fecaa6a1f45949) #### Written by [Chad Hutchison](https://www.mavenimaging.com/blog/author/chad-hutchison) Founder and CEO of Maven Imaging, Chad Hutchison has been in the medical imaging equipment market since 2003.
