Annotation of standard text IEC 62709-ed.2.0 :
IEC 62709:2024 applies to security screening systems that utilize X-ray radiation and are used to inspect people who are not inside vehicles, containers, or enclosures. Specifically, this document applies to systems used to detect objects carried on or within the body of the individual being inspected. The objective is to provide standard methods of measuring and reporting imaging quality characteristics that enable system manufacturers, potential system users and other interested parties to: a) Establish a consistent indicator of the expected technical performance of screening systems used for the inspection of individuals. Such technical performance testing complements explicit detection testing and evaluation. In this document "detection" refers to items in an image. b) Provide repeatable and verifiable imaging performance data that can be used to compare systems from different vendors. c) Establish a baseline that can be used over time to calibrate the system or detect any performance degradation. (It is not intended that the entire test method be employed for daily quality assurance testing.) d) Establish minimum acceptable performance requirements for the systems described above. This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition published in 2014. This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous edition: a) Clarified the test procedures to maintain consistency with IEC 62463. b) Changed the term "spatial resolution" to "pentalith resolution". c) Modified some standard test conditions. d) Modified some terms and definitions. e) Changed the imaging requirements for transmission general-use systems.
