If it can fly with enough precision (say, keeping within 4" from the surface, or directly contacting the surface with an instrument; not sure what the requirement is) and the equipment can be made light enough that inspections can be completed without an egregious number of returns to base to recharge, I feel like even ultrasonic testing would be feasible.
As far as RT, it seems like it'd be a much better idea to do that with robots instead of humans who get cancer. I'm assuming that there aren't any other people within a range that would get a significant dose of radiation during this testing, but even if, it would seem to me that automated inspection could be made more precise and safer than humans could do, eventually.

Definitely an interesting time to be alive :)
