BS 7725-2.3:1994

This standard BS 7725-2.3:1994 Evaluation and routine testing in medical imaging departments. Constancy tests is classified in these ICS categories:

• 11.040.50 Radiographic equipment

This technical report applies to darkrooms in X-ray facilities where any of the following unprocessed radiographic or photographic materials sensitive to light are handled:

• all types of screen film;

• non-screen film;

• photographic film for indirect radiography, as used for recording:

  • output images of x-ray image intensifiers;

  • other radiological images after transfer;

• photographic material for copying radiograms;

• photographic material for making permanent images of information recorded by electronic means, and presented on display tubes; for example: using hard copy cameras, or printed by other electronic means, for example: laser; or used in diagnostic equipment, such as for general reconstructive tomography; digital imaging; ultrasound; magnetic resonance techniques; in nuclear medicine.

This technical report is a part of a series of Particular Publications (standards and technical reports) which will describe test methods for the constancy of properties of various subsystems of diagnostic x-ray equipment, as described in IEC 1223-1.
