Standard(Included in ASCA)
IEC  60601-2-54 Edition 2.0 2022-09
Medical electrical equipment - Part 2-54: Particular requirements for the basic safety and essential performance of X-ray equipment for radiography and radioscopy
Scope/Abstract
This document applies to the BASIC SAFETY and ESSENTIAL PERFORMANCE of ME EQUIPMENT and ME SYSTEMS intended to be used for projection RADIOGRAPHY and INDIRECT RADIOSCOPY.IEC 60601-2-43 applies to ME EQUIPMENT and ME SYSTEMS intended to be used for interventional applications and refers to applicable requirements in this document.

ME EQUIPMENT and ME SYSTEMS intended to be used for bone or tissue absorption densitometry, computed tomography, mammography or dental or radiotherapy applications are excluded from the scope of this document. The scope of this document also excludes radiotherapy simulators.

If a clause or subclause is specifically intended to be applicable to ME EQUIPMENT only, or to ME SYSTEMS only, the title and content of that clause or subclause will say so. If that is not the case, the clause or subclause applies both to ME EQUIPMENT and to ME SYSTEMS, as relevant.
Extent of Recognition
Partial recognition. The following part(s) of the standard is (are) not recognized:
203.9.101 X-RAY EQUIPMENT specified for RADIOSCOPY
203.9.102 X-RAY EQUIPMENT specified for RADIOGRAPHY
Rationale for Recognition
This standard is relevant to medical devices and is recognized on its scientific and technical merit and/or because it supports existing regulatory policies.

This standard is recognized in part because:

- 203.9.101 is in conflict with an existing regulation, 21 CFR 1020.32(g) Source-skin distance (1).
- 203.9.101 is in conflict with an existing published final guidance, see Section IV. Section A Electronic Products - Performance Standards; Row 4 of Table 3; Row 12 of Table 4 in FDA guidance #2 listed below.
- 203.9.102 is in conflict with an existing regulation, 21 CFR 1020.32(i) Source-skin distance (2).
