IEC TR 61948-2:2019 ED2

Nuclear medicine instrumentation - Routine tests - Part 2: Scintillation cameras and single photon emission computed tomography imaging

Scope

IEC TR 61948-2:2019 is valid for single photon scintillation cameras with parallel hole collimators used in planar scintigraphy and tomography. It is also valid for the SPECT portion of SPECT/CT systems with parallel hole collimators, including the co-registration between the SPECT and CT subsystems. The objective is to specify ROUTINE TESTS for QUALITY CONTROL. Methods for the ACCEPTANCE TEST are described in IEC 61675-2.
IEC TR 61948-2:2019 cancels and replaces the first edition published in 2001. It constitutes a technical revision.
This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous edition:
a) adaptation to apply to the present technology;
b) updating of the test methods to comply with the recent state of the art.
