16、ectrical Manufacturers Association Foreword This standard is intended to be used by medical imaging device manufacturers in the design and manufacture of x-ray equipment intended to perform interventional procedures. This standard was developed by the Interventional Group of the x-ray Imaging Sectio

17、n of the Medical Imaging thus K=dEtr/dm, in units of J/kg, where the special name for the unit of kerma is gray (Gy). When the material is air, the quantity is referred to as air kerma (21 CFR 1020.30). DOSE RELATED PARAMETER: parameter that has an influence on the system AIR KERMA rate as defined a

18、t 20 cm PMMA (as per clause 203.6.101 - Range of AIR KERMA rates in RADIOSCOPY from IEC 60601-2-43:2010), and also has an influence on the maximum AIR KERMA rate in RADIOSCOPY. EQUIPMENT: fixed x-ray equipment intended to perform prolonged interventional procedures. EXAM PROTOCOL SELECTION BUTTON: a

19、 single hardware or software setting which is associated with a full set of programmed technical factors and control algorithms designed to optimize the image acquisition and display. FOR PROCESSING IMAGES: image detector data that has been processed to account for detector and x-ray system limitati

20、ons as allowed in IEC 62220-1 Ed.1. FOR PRESENTATION IMAGES: images acquired and processed as identical to the images acquired during INTENDED USE and without resizing or reduction in bit depth. DOSE AREA PRODUCT: product of the area of the cross-section of an x-ray beam and the averaged AIR KERMA o

21、ver that cross-section. The unit is the gray square meter (Gy.m2) (adapted from IEC 60601-2-54:2009). INTENDED USE: use of a product, process or service in accordance with the specifications, instructions and information provided by the manufacturer (ISO 14971:2000). Note: INTENDED USE should not be

22、 confused with normal use. While both include the concept of use as intended by the manufacturer, INTENDED USE focuses on the medical purpose while normal use incorporates not only the medical purpose, but maintenance, service, transport, etc. as well. MANUAL CONTROL MODE: a mode of EQUIPMENT operat

23、ion which does not automatically control one or more technique factors in order to obtain at a preselected location(s) a required quantity of radiation per unit time. MOBILE EQUIPMENT: TRANSPORTABLE EQUIPMENT intended to be moved from one location to another between periods of use while supported by

24、 its own wheels or equivalent means (IEC glossary 3). MODE OF OPERATION: a distinct method of RADIOSCOPY or RADIOGRAPHY provided by the manufacturer and selected with a set of several technique factors or other control settings uniquely associated with the mode. The set of distinct technique factors

25、 and control settings for the mode may be selected by the operation of a single control. Examples of distinct modes of operation include normal RADIOSCOPY (analog or digital), high-level control RADIOSCOPY, cineradiography (analog or digital), digital subtraction angiography, electronic RADIOGRAPHY

26、using the fluoroscopic image receptor, and photospot recording. In a specific mode of operation, certain system variables affecting AIR KERMA, AKR, or image quality, such as image magnification, x-ray field size, pulse rate, pulse duration, number of pulses, source-image receptor distance (SID), or

27、optical aperture, may be XR 27-2013 with Amendment 1 Page 10 2013 National Electrical Manufacturers Association adjustable or may vary; their variation per se does not comprise a mode of operation different from the one that has been selected (21 CFR 1020.30) PROTOCOL: set of parameters pre-defined

28、to perform an examination on live humans or animals. QUALITY CONTROL USER: person designated and qualified to perform the quality control on the EQUIPMENT. QUALITY CONTROL USER INTERFACE: a dedicated user interface on the EQUIPMENT for the USER QUALITY CONTROL MODE and different from the user interf

29、ace designed for the INTENDED USE (clinical mode). RADIOGRAPHY: technique for obtaining, recording and optionally processing directly or after transfer, information contained in an x-ray pattern at an image reception area intended to be analyzed during a time independent from the irradiation time (I

30、EC 60601-1-3). RADIOSCOPY: technique for obtaining continuously or periodically a sequence of x-ray patterns and presenting them directly or through a transfer and optional processing simultaneously and continuously as visible images. This mode is intended to provide real-time guidance to an ongoing

31、 action (IEC 60601-1-3). RESPONSIBLE ORGANIZATION: entity accountable for the use and maintenance of the EQUIPMENT. TRANSPORTABLE EQUIPMENT: EQUIPMENT which is intended to be moved from one place to another whether or not connected to a supply and without an appreciable restriction or range. EXAMPLE

32、: Mobile equipment and portable equipment (IEC glossary 3).

38、User Quality Control mode - Not Intended for Clinical Use or similar words in the appropriate language. The fluoroscopic display monitor(s) in the control room and at the operators working position shall indicate, in a clearly legible fashion, how to exit the USER QUALITY CONTROL MODE. Editing of a

39、PROTOCOL for permanent modification of system parameters shall be prohibited during the USER QUALITY CONTROL MODE. Safety functions for operator and/or EQUIPMENT protection (e.g. mechanical limits, x-ray tube loading) shall be fully functional while in the USER QUALITY CONTROL MODE. Note 2: safety f

40、unctions for patient protection (e.g., anti-collision, maximum AIR KERMA rates, fluoroscopic timing device, automatic termination after 10 minutes of continuous exposure, etc.) can be active but are not required during the USER QUALITY CONTROL MODE since no patient is present during the tests. The a

41、ccompanying documents shall indicate the instructions to protect, as appropriate, all the components of the image chain during the USER QUALITY CONTROL MODE. When the USER QUALITY CONTROL MODE is terminated, all safety functions shall be restored. 2.2 CONTROL OF ACCESS In order to operate the EQUIPM

42、ENT in the USER QUALITY CONTROL MODE, the EQUIPMENT should require that a QUALITY CONTROL USER is logged on and authorized to use that system. In order to permit rapid resumption of the INTENDED USE for emergencies, if the EQUIPMENT requires a password to enter in the USER QUALITY CONTROL MODE, a pa

43、ssword shall not be required to return to the INTENDED USE mode (i.e., normal clinical mode). Note: it is ultimately the responsibility of the RESPONSIBLE ORGANIZATION to manage authorized user access. EQUIPMENT should provide a free-form text field to enable entry of descriptive text during log-in

44、(e.g. name of QUALITY CONTROL USER). This text should be accessible in service logs by the manufacturer.
