            Abstract : 
The article contains further development of the author´s problem. I have tested the application of the ionization chamber as a dosimeter. I was measuring the changes of ionization current with the absorption of X-rays by metals. I was changing the thickness of the absorbent for different voltage of the X-lamp. The obtained results have the same character as in the case of other dosimeters used so far (e.g. Geiger-Mueller counter). Therefore my ionization chamber can function as dosimetric chamber (e.g. in medicine), although further research would be demanded to ensure better usage.
