Abstract
Process and apparatus for examining a fuel assembly of a nuclear reactor. The apparatus includes a support on which is positioned the assembly to be examined, a wave transmitting source directed towards the assembly to be examined, a mechanism for examining the assembly receiving the waves transmitted by the source and which have been reflected by the assembly. The examining mechanism includes a spindle directed towards a mirror, which is inclined in such a way that it reflects the waves reflected by the assembly towards the examining mechanism, and a device for providing protection against radiation emitted by the assembly, the device being positioned between the assembly and the examining mechanism.
