T/HBYY 05-2021 Mobile CT cabinets

Scope

Main technical content: Compared with fixed CT rooms, mobile CT cabins have the advantages of convenience, speed, and portability. Some already-applied mobile CT cabins have played an important role in emergency response and daily public health services, but there are still some problems: ① Damage to CT equipment caused by inadequate shock protection measures during transportation; and during CT operation, the centrifugal force of the rotating frame causes vibrations, which affect image quality and even pose potential medical risks. ② The mobile CT cabin on the vehicle is not up to standard in terms of area and space for wheelchairs and stretchers, making it inconvenient to use them for emergency response and lacking sufficient space for emergency operations. ③ There are no effective solutions, let alone established concepts, bases, or plans, for preventing cross-contamination, protecting against pathogenic microorganisms, and disinfection. Although existing national CT-related standards propose requirements for radiation protection and quality control testing, they do not specifically regulate mobile CT cabins or address the above-mentioned issues, failing to meet clinical and epidemic prevention requirements. With the mutation of the COVID-19 virus and the development of the COVID-19 pandemic, CT imaging diagnosis has played an important role as one of the key diagnostic methods. Mobile CT cabins have become an important tool for frontline epidemic prevention and control, making it urgent and necessary to establish standards for mobile CT cabins to adapt to the development of the situation. This standard proposes some new issues and innovative solutions for the first time globally, which is of great scientific significance and reference value for improving the technical level of mobile CT cabins, preventing cross-contamination during mobile CT operations, supporting the use of wheelchairs and stretchers, ensuring the safe operation of mobile CT cabins, an
