What is BS IEC 62945IThe imaging performance of X-ray computed tomography (CT) security-screening systems about?
BS IEC 62945 discusses X-ray computed tomography (CT) security-screening systems. BS IEC 62945 is a European standard that specifies the imaging performance of X-ray computed tomography (CT) security-screening systems and ensures protection from radiation hazards.
BS IEC 62945 provides test methods for the evaluation of image quality of computed tomography (CT) security-screening systems. The quality of data for automated analysis is
the primary concern.
Note1: BS IEC 62945 does not address the system’s ability to use this image data to automatically detect explosives or other threat materials, nor is it intended for vendor-to-vendor comparisons of threat-detection performance.
Note2: BS IEC 62945 does not address the image quality presented to the operator.
Who is BS IEC 62945-The imaging performance of X-ray computed tomography (CT) security-screening systems for?
BS IEC 62945 on the imaging performance of X-ray computed tomography (CT) security-screening systems is useful for:
- Security-screening system manufacturers
- Security-screening system test personnel
- Occupational health and safety departments
- Quality assurance authorities
Why should you use BS IEC 62945-The imaging performance of X-ray computed tomography (CT) security-screening systems?
Security screening systems are used to scan parcels, including luggage, for the presence of illicit items such as explosives, drugs, or other contraband. Many of the screening systems currently used, particularly in transportation security applications, are based on CT imaging technology.
BS IEC 62945 provides you with Imaging performance evaluation procedures, test performance requirements, procedures environmental requirements, statistical guidance on multiple scans, summary statistics, comparison of results, and much more.
The requirements and test methods provided by BS IEC 62945 assist in improving the performance of the security-screening systems thus, enhancing the image quality, to minimize the harmful effects of ionizing radiation.
By adopting BS IEC 62945 the user can improve the efficacy of the security screening systems and enhance the product’s standard and quality.
