In this paper, we measured and analyzed the dose correction factor, absorbed dose linearity, peak voltage X-ray response, angular dependence. Exposure dose correction factor, absorbed dose linearity, and peak voltage linearity using the medical X-ray generator were all in accordance with IEC-62387-1 (2007). The reference to the dosimetry direction at 0, 30, and 60 degrees relative to baseline radiation exposure was -29% (${\pm}30^{\circ}$) and + 67% (${\pm}60^{\circ}$). The values measured at $30^{\circ}$ were -8% lower than the standard and -18% lower than the standard at $60^{\circ}$. Therefore, the effect of direction should be corrected when using OSL dot dosimeter.
