There is no single NDT method for every case. Visual, penetrant, magnetic particle and ultrasonic testing have different scopes and limitations.
Selection should consider the material, likely discontinuity location, access and applicable standard.
The method depends on material, discontinuity type, geometry and acceptance criteria.
