This standard does

26、 not apply to special cassettes (such as cassettes with built-in ANTI-SCATTER GRIDS, cassettes for simultaneous TOMOGRAPHY). It is provided to ensure that X-RAY EQUIPMENT can be operated with RADIOGRAPHIC CASSETTES of different MANUFACTURERS. 2 Normative references The following normative documents

27、contain provisions which, through reference in this text, constitute provisions of this International Standard. At the time of publication, the editions indicated were valid. All normative documents are subject to revision, and parties to agreements based on this International Standard are encourage

28、d to investigate the possibility of applying the most recent editions of the normative documents indicated below. Members of IEC and ISO maintain registers of currently valid International Standards. IEC 336:1993, X-ray tube assemblies for medical diagnosis Characteristics of focal spots. IEC 658:19

31、dard, certain terms (which are not printed in SMALL CAPITALS) have particular meanings, as follows: 3.2 Use of terms In this standard, terms printed in SMALL CAPITALS are used as defined in IEC788, in3.3 of this standard or other IEC publications referenced inAnnex D. Where a defined term is used as

32、 a qualifier in another defined or undefined term it is not printed in SMALL CAPITALS, unless the concept thus qualified is defined, or recognized as a “derived term without definition”. NOTEAttention is drawn to the fact that, in cases where the concept addressed is not strongly confined to the def

33、inition given in one of the publications listed above, a corresponding term is printed in lower case letters. 3.3 Defined term 3.3.1 RADIOGRAPHIC SCREEN: INTENSIFYING SCREEN intended to be used with RADIOGRAPHIC FILMS or photostimulable phosphor plates intended to be used for RADIOGRAPHY. 4 RADIOGRA

34、PHIC CASSETTES (except mammographic cassettes) 4.1 Dimensions The individual values and their permitted tolerances for the different nominal sizes of cassettes are given inTable 1. NOTEAn explanation of apparent deviations, together with the nominal sizes of35 and43, is given inAnnex E. “shall” indi

35、cates a requirement that is mandatory for compliance; “should” indicates a strong recommendation that is not mandatory for compliance; “may” indicates a permitted manner of complying with a requirement; “specific” is used to indicate definitive information stated in this standard or referenced in ot

36、her standards, usually concerning particular operating conditions, test arrangements or values connected with compliance; “specified” is used to indicate definitive information stated by the MANUFACTURER in ACCOMPANYING DOCUMENTS or in other documentation relating to the equipment under consideratio

37、n, usually concerning its intended purposes, or the parameters or conditions associated with its use, or with testing to determine compliance.EN60406:1997 4 BSI 09-1999 Table 1 Dimensions of RADIOGRAPHIC CASSETTES 4.2 Denomination RADIOGRAPHIC CASSETTES are denoted by the nominal size expressed in n

38、umerical values (in centimetres) without adding the unit “cm”. Example: Cassette18 24 (eighteen by twenty-four) denotes a RADIOGRAPHIC CASSETTE for a film with the nominal size18 24. If compliance of a cassette with this standard is to be stated, it shall be indicated in combination with the name or

39、 trade mark of MANUFACTURER or supplier, as in the following examples: a) for a RADIOGRAPHIC CASSETTE for a film with the nominal size18 24: 18 24 IEC60406 or, as appropriate: b) for the same cassette with absorption back, indicating the absorption back attenuating material by the numerical value of

40、 its equivalent thickness and by its chemical symbol: 18 24 IEC60406 0,13Pb. 4.3 Preferred nominal sizes Preferred nominal sizes for cassettes are marked with asterisks inTable 1. 4.4 Outer dimensions The specified thickness of a cassette is intended to ensure that the cassette can be properly fixed

41、 in a defined position (for example within a holder or rails). It is not essential for this dimension to be maintained over the entire area of the cassette. However, in no case shall the maximum tolerance of the thickness as given inTable 1 be exceeded in any part of the cassette end. The corners an

42、d the edges corresponding to the dimensions15 mm and 16,5 mm shall be smoothed. They should be shaped to a maximum radius of6mm and a minimum radius of3mm over a quarter circle.
