This standard applies to electro-optical x-ray image intensifiers as components for X-ray imaging systems in medical diagnosis.
This standard also covers electro-optical X-RAY image intensifier tubes but excludes its application to all such devices when these are installed in an X-ray imaging system.
Note. — Checking the performance of the devices after installation in an X-ray imaging system at the user's site will be made according to quality assurance methods (at present under consideration).
