NDT Matrix

The document lists various non-destructive testing methods and the types of discontinuities, anomalies, and conditions they can detect. It includes surface and subsurface examination methods, volumetric methods, integrity examination, and condition monitoring techniques. A table provides an assessment of each method as being unsatisfactory, possible, or accepted for different detection capabilities.
