Australia Therapeutic Goods (Medical Devices) Regulations 2002 sch1-11: Essential principle 11: minimise patient, user and bystander exposure to intended and stray radiation, give users control and warnings for hazardous emissions, document radiation in the operating instructions, and control ionising radiation dose and image quality

What does sch1-11 require?

Radiation exposure of patients, users and others must be kept as low as the device's diagnostic or therapeutic function allows, and exposure to unintended, stray or scattered radiation minimised. Where the device deliberately emits hazardous visible or invisible radiation for a medical purpose whose benefit outweighs the risk, the user must be able to control the emission, relevant parameters must be reproducible within tolerance and, where practicable, a visual or audible warning must operate. Operating instructions must explain the nature of the radiation, protective measures, how to avoid misuse and installation risks. Ionising devices must, where practicable, allow control of quantity, geometry and energy; diagnostic radiology devices must give suitable image quality at minimised dose; therapeutic radiology devices must allow reliable control and monitoring of delivered dose, beam type and energy.
