IEC 62985 Ed. 1.0 en:2019 Methods for calculating size specific dose estimates (SSDE) on computed tomography
standard by International Electrotechnical Commission, 09/13/2019
Full Description
IEC 62985:2019 applies toCT SCANNERS that are able to display and report CTDIVOL in accordance with IEC 60601-2-44, andRADIATION dose index monitoring software (RDIMS)for the purpose of calculating, displaying and recording the SIZE SPECIFIC DOSE ESTIMATE (SSDE) and its associated components.
Specifically, this document provides standardized methods and requirements for calculating, displaying, or recording of SSDE, SSDE(z), WATER EQUIVALENT DIAMETER (DW), and DW(z), where z represents a specific longitudinal position of the scanned object.
