Understanding Neutron Radiography Reading VII-NRHB Part 2 of 2

4.2.2 Defect
In the present collection of neutron radiographs the term "defect" is used for
designation of a neutron radiographic finding, showing a different appearance
of a particular part of the fuel, different from that, which will be shown on a
neutron radiograph of that part as fabricated. The term "defect" is therefore
used in a rather general and neutral significance. A "defect" in the sense of
this Handbook does not necessarily disqualify a fuel pin for further normal
operation.
