GB 9706.243-2021 Medical electrical equipment—Part 2-43:Particular requirements for the basic safety and essential performance of X-ray equipment for interventional procedures
Basic Information
Scope
This part of GB 9706 specifies the general requirements for the basic safety and basic performance of ME devices and ME systems.
This part applies to medical electrical equipment and medical electrical systems (hereinafter referred to as ME devices and ME systems).
If a chapter or clause explicitly states that it only applies to ME devices or ME systems, the title and the text of the chapter or clause will indicate this. If this is not the case, the relevant chapter or clause applies to both ME devices and ME systems.
Except for 7.2.13 and 8.4.1, the hazards (sources) caused by the intended physiological effects of ME devices or ME systems within the scope of this part are not specifically required in this part.
Replacement:
This part applies to the basic safety and basic performance of X-ray devices (hereinafter referred to as interventional X-ray devices) declared by the manufacturer as suitable for fluoroscopically guided interventional operations. The scope of this part does not include, in particular:
——Radiotherapy equipment;
——Computed tomography equipment;
——Accessories intended to enter the patient's body;
——Breast X-ray equipment;
——Dental X-ray equipment.
Note 1: Examples of fluoroscopically guided interventional operations using interventional X-ray devices that comply with this part are given in Appendix AA.
Note 2: Specific requirements for magnetic navigation devices and interventional X-ray devices used in operating room environments are not considered in this part, and therefore there are no specific requirements for these devices or their use. In any case, such devices or applications still comply with the requirements of the general provisions.
Note 3: Interventional X-ray devices used in cross-sectional imaging mode (sometimes described as cone beam CT) are covered by this part, not by GB 9706.244. The current standard does not consider additional requirements for cone
