This part of IEC 61223 applies to those components of X-ray equipment which
- generate, influence the propagation of and detect X-radiation;
- process, record and present radiographic information in radiological installations with mammographic X-ray equipment using intensifying screens with radiographic film.
Special accessories of mammographic X-ray equipment such as biopsy plates and stereotactic devices are not within the scope of this standard.
This standard is a part of a series of Particular Publications (international standards and technical reports) which define methods of testing the constancy of operation of various subsystems of diagnostic X-ray equipment.
This standard gives methods of tests for the constancy of properties of diagnostic X-ray equipment as described in IEC 61223-1 (see clause 2).
This part of IEC 61223 is designed to be applicable to X-ray equipment for mammography without digital imaging devices.
