23、y expose PATIENTS to danger if the RADIATION DETECTOR is in physical Contact with a PATIENT and the DOSEMETER design does not satisfy standards of electrical and mechanical safety. a) Most DOSEMETERS for RADIOTHERAPY are not intended for Use in Contact with a PATIENT: these should conform with the n

24、ormal safety requirements for electronic measuring apparatus in IEC 1010-1. during RADIOTHERAPY, the more stringent requirements of this Particular Standard as regards electrical safety, robustness and disinfectability will be applied. c) The MEASURING ASSEMBLY is designed to meet the requirements o

25、f IEC 601-1 for b) If the DETECTOR ASSEMBLY Of a DOSEMETER is intended for use in Contact with a PATIENT allowable PATIENT LEAKAGE CURRENTS because it is electrically connected to the RADIATION DETECTOR. d) If DETECTOR ASSEMBLIES and MEASURING ASSEMBLIES are sold Separately, or can be disconnected f

26、rom each other, the USER needs to be told which particular DETECTOR ASSEMBLY/MEASURING ASSEMBLY combinations meet the requirements of this Particular Standard for use in contact with a PATIENT. It is possible, for example, that a DETECTOR ASSEMBLY connected to an unsuitable MEASURING ASSEMBLY (even

27、if they each met all requirements when connected to suitable partners) could unintentionally have its ACCESSIBLE CONDUCTIVE PARTS connected to the polarizing supply; such a combination would be unsafe because of the high probability of grounding of the polarizing supply through the PATIENT and, cons

28、equently, incorrect readings. This Particular Standard establishes requirements to be complied with by MANUFACTURERS in the design and construction of RADIOTHERAPY DOSEMETERS intended for use in physical contact with a PATIENT.
