Evaluation and routine testing in medical imaging departments - Part 3-5: Acceptance tests and and constancy tests - Imaging performance of computed tomography X-ray equipment (IEC 61223-3-5:2019)
This part of IEC 61223 applies to CT SCANNERS that conform to IEC 60601-2-44:2009,
IEC 60601-2-44:2009/AMD1:2012 and IEC 60601-2-44:2009/AMD2:2016.
IEC 60601-2-44 and this document
• defines the essential parameters which describe the performance of CT SCANNERS with
regard to image quality, RADIATION OUTPUT and PATIENT positioning; the list of parameters
to be tested can be found in 4.3,
• defines the methods of testing the essential parameters, and
• evaluates compliance with the tolerances of the parameters SPECIFIED by the
ACCOMPANYING DOCUMENTS.
The methods defined in IEC 60601-2-44 and this document rely on non-invasive
measurements, using appropriate test equipment, performed during or after installation.
Signed statements covering steps in the installation procedure can be used as part of the
ACCEPTANCE TEST report.
