Annotation of standard text IEC 60580-ed.3.0 :
IEC 60580:2019 specifies the performance and testing of Dose Area Product Meters intended to measure Dose Area Product and/or Dose Area Product Rate to which the Patient is exposed during Medical Radiological Examinations. This document is applicable to the following types of Dose Area Product Meters: a) Field-Class Dose Area Product Meters normally used for the measurement of Dose Area Products during Medical Radiological Examinations; b) Reference-Class Dose Area Product Meters normally used for the Calibration of Field-Class Dosimeters. NOTE Reference-Class Dose Area Product Meters can be used as Field-Class Dose Area Product Meters. The object of this document is 1) to establish requirements for a satisfactory level of performance for Dose Area Product Meters, and 2) to standardize the methods for the determination of compliance with this level of performance. Two levels of performance are specified: – a lower level of performance applying to Field-Class Dose Area Product Meters; – a higher level of performance applying to Reference-Class Dose Area Product Meters. IEC 60580:2019 cancels and replaces the second edition published 2000, and constitutes a technical revision. This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous edition: a) a second class of devices is introduced with tighter uncertainty tolerances; b) this document has been expanded to include detectors other than ionization chambers; c) radiation qualities have been updated to the new definitions according to IEC 61267; d) a requirement on the linearity of the dose area product rate measurement was added; e) changed chamber light transmission requirement from 70 % to 60 %. LIEC 60580:2019 specifie la performance et lessai des Radiametres de Produit Exposition-Surface destines au mesurage du Produit Exposition-Surface et/ou du Debit de Produit Exposition-Surface auquel le Patient est expose au cours des Examens Radiologiques Medicaux. Le present document est applicable aux types suivants de Radiametres de Produit Exposition-Surface: a) les Radiametres de Produit Exposition-Surface de Classe de Routine normalement utilises pour le mesurage des Produits Exposition-Surface au cours des Examens Radiologiques Medicaux; b) les Radiametres de Produit Exposition-Surface de Classe de Reference normalement utilises pour l’Etalonnage des Dosimetres de Classe de Routine. NOTE Les Radiametres de Produit Exposition-Surface de Classe de Reference peuvent etre utilises en tant que Radiametres de Produit Exposition-Surface de Classe de Routine. L’objet du present document est 1) detablir les exigences pour assurer un niveau de performance satisfaisant des Radiametres de Produit Exposition-Surface, et 2) de normaliser les methodes pour determiner la conformite a ce niveau de performance. Deux niveaux de performance sont specifies: – un niveau inferieur de performance applicable aux Radiametres de Produit Exposition-Surface de Classe de Routine; – un niveau superieur de performance applicable aux Radiametres de Produit Exposition-Surface de Classe de Reference. LIEC 60580:2019 annule et remplace la deuxieme edition parue en 2000, et constitue une revision technique. Cette edition inclut les modifications techniques majeures suivantes par rapport a ledition precedente: a) une deuxieme classe de dispositifs a ete introduite, avec des tolerances d’incertitude plus strictes; b) la presente norme a ete etendue pour inclure les detecteurs autres que les chambres d’ionisation; c) les qualites de rayonnement ont ete mises a jour en fonction des nouvelles definitions de l’IEC 61267; d) une exigence relative a la linearite du mesurage du debit de produit exposition-surface a ete ajoutee; e) l’exigence relative a la transmission lumineuse de la chambre a ete modifiee, passant de 70 % a 60 %.
