医用电气设备 数字x射线成像设备的特点
BS EN 62220-1-1:2015 specifies the method for the determination of the DETECTIVE QUANTUM
EFFICIENCY (DQE) of DIGITAL X-RAY IMAGING DEVICES as a function of AIR KERMA and of SPATIAL
FREQUENCY for the working conditions in the range of the medical application as specified by
the MANUFACTURER. The intended users of this part of IEC 62220 are manufacturers and well
equipped test laboratories.NOTE 1 While not recommended, applying this standard to determine the DQE of digital X-ray imaging devices
integrated in a clinical system is not excluded as long as the requirements as set in this standard are respected.Points of additional attention could be (for example but not exclusively) the establishment of the required RADIATION
QUALITIES, minimizing influences of scattered and back-scattered radiation, accurate AIR KERMA measurements,
positioning of the TEST DEVICE, presence of protective covers, removal of ANTI-SCATTER GRID.This Part 1-1 is restricted to DIGITAL X-RAY IMAGING DEVICES that are used for radiographic
imaging such as, but not exclusively, CR systems, direct and indirect flat panel-detector
based systems.It is not recommended to use this part of IEC 62220 for digital X-RAY IMAGE INTENSIFIER-based
systems.NOTE 2 The use of this standard for X-RAY IMAGE INTENSIFER-based systems is discouraged based on the low
frequency drop, vignetting and geometrical distortion present in these devices which may put severe limitations on
the applicability of the measurement methods described in this standard.This part of IEC 62220 is not applicable to:DIGITAL X-RAY IMAGING DEVICES intended to be used in mammography or in dental
radiography;slot scanning DIGITAL X-RAY IMAGING DEVICES;COMPUTED TOMOGRAPHY;devices for dynamic imaging (where series of images are acquired, as in fluoroscopy or cardiac
imaging).NOTE 3 The devices noted above are excluded because they contain many parameters (for instance, beam
qualities, geometry, time dependence, etc.) which differ from those important for RADIOGRAPHY. Some of these
techniques are treated in other parts of the IEC 62220 standards (IEC 62220-1-2 and IEC 62220-1-3).Cross References:IEC 60336IEC TR 60788:2004IEC 61267:2005EN 60336EN 61267:2006ICRU Report 54:1996ISO/IEC Guide 98-3:2008IEC 62220-1-3:2008IEC 62220-1-2:2007IEC 61262-5:1994ISO 12233:2000ISO 15529:2010ICRU Report 41:1986IEC 60601-2-54EN 62220-1-3:2008EN 62220-1-2:2007EN 61262-5:1994EN 60601-2-54Replaces BS EN 62220-1:2004 which remains currentAll current amendments available at time of purchase are included with the purchase of this document.
