The Hinode X-Ray Telescope provides unprecedented observations of the solar corona in x-rays, due in part to its fine resolution. The optical point spread function (PSF) was measured before launch at the NASA X-Ray Calibration Facility to have a FWHM of 0.92 arc-seconds. In this poster we describe our work to verify the PSF measurements using on-orbit data. The US XRT team is supported by a contract from NASA to SAO. Hinode is an international project supported by JAXA, NASA, PPARC, and ESA. We are grateful to the Hinode team for all their efforts in the design, development, and operation of the mission.
