RE: Standards for X-ray maschines

["Eric Cowdrey" <ericc@cancercare.mb.ca>]

In Canada, manufacturing standards for x-ray machines are prescribed in the
Radiation Emitting Devices (RED) Regulations, issued pursuant to the RED
Act. You can sort through the Regulations (they also cover other types of
radiation emitting devices besides x-ray machines) at:

Hi all

Could someone direct me to international standards (if any) for the
manufacturing of X-ray machines.  I am also looking for standards on the
acceptance/performance testing X-ray machines.  This will be standards for
medical and non-medical X-ray machines.

My e-mail address is:

Thanks
