Medical electrical equipment -- Part 2-1: Particular requirements for basic safety and essential performance of electron accelerators in the range 1 MeV to 50 MeV
This standard applies to the BASIC SAFETY and ESSENTIAL PERFORMANCE of ELECTRON ACCELERATORS, hereafter referred to as ME EQUIPMENT, in the range 1 MeV to 50 MeV, used for treatment of PATIENTS. This particular standard, with the inclusion of TYPE TESTS and SITE TESTS, applies respectively to the manufacture and some installation aspects of ELECTRON ACCELERATORS - intended for RADIOTHERAPY in human medical practice, including those in which the selection and DISPLAY of operating parameters can be controlled automatically by PROGRAMMABLE ELECTRONIC SUBSYSTEMS (PESS), - that, under NORMAL CONDITIONS and in NORMAL USE, deliver a RADIATION BEAM of XRADIATION and/or ELECTRON RADIATION having - NOMINAL ENERGY in the range 1 MeV to 50 MeV, - maximum ABSORBED DOSE RATES between 0,001 Gy × s-1 and 1 Gy × s-1 at 1 m from the RADIATION SOURCE, - NORMAL TREATMENT DISTANCES (NTDs) between 0,5 m and 2 m from the RADIATION SOURCE, and - intended to be - for NORMAL USE, operated under the authority of appropriately licensed or QUALIFIED PERSONS by OPERATORS having the required skills for a particular medical application, for particular specified clinical purposes, e.g. STATIONARY RADIOTHERAPY or MOVING BEAM RADIOTHERAPY, - maintained in accordance with the recommendations given in the INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE, - subject to regular quality assurance performance and calibration checks by a QUALIFIED PERSON.

Appareils électromédicaux -- Partie 2-1: Règles particulières pour la sécurité de base et les performances essentielles des accélérateurs d'électrons dans la gamme de 1 MeV à 50 MeV
La CEI 60601-2-1:2009 s'applique à la sécurité de base et aux performances essentielles des accélérateurs d'électrons dans la gamme de 1 MeV à 50 MeV, et utilisés pour le traitement des patients. La présente norme particulière décrit les exigences auxquelles il convient que les fabricants se conforment dans la conception et la construction des accélérateurs d'électrons utilisés en radiothérapie; elle ne vise pas à définir des exigences de performances optimales. Son objet est d'identifier les caractéristiques de conception reconnues actuellement comme essentielles pour la sécurité de fonctionnement de tels appareils électromédicaux. Elle fixe des limites de détérioration des performances des appareils électromédicaux qui seraient la conséquence d'une condition de défaut, pour lesquelles un verrouillage doit entrer en action pour empêcher l'appareil em de continuer à fonctionner. Cette troisième édition annule et remplace la deuxième édition publiée en 1998 et son Amendement 1 (2002). Elle constitue une révision technique. Cette troisième édition aborde les questions suivantes non traitées dans les éditions antérieures: - l'alignement avec les nouvelles normes collatérales pertinentes; - les nouvelles technologies en radiothérapie, y compris la radiochirurgie stéréotaxique (SRT) et la radiothérapie stéréotaxique (SRS), la radiothérapie de conformation avec modulation d'intensité de dose (IMRT), les dispositifs d'imagerie numérique et la radiothérapie cinétique (thérapie dynamique).

FOREWORD
1) The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) is a worldwide organization for standardization comprising
all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of IEC is to promote
international co-operation on all questions concerning standardization in the electrical and electronic fields. To
this end and in addition to other activities, IEC publishes International Standards, Technical Specifications,
Technical Reports, Publicly Available Specifications (PAS) and Guides (hereafter referred to as “IEC
Publication(s)”). Their preparation is entrusted to technical committees; any IEC National Committee interested
in the subject dealt with may participate in this preparatory work. International, governmental and non-
governmental organizations liaising with the IEC also p
