IEC 60601-2-37 Medical Medical Devices - Part 2-37: Standard Test for the Safety of Ultrasonic Medical Diagnostic and Imaging Equipment

EUROLAB, with its state-of-the-art accredited laboratories and expert team, provides precise and fast testing services within the scope of IEC 60601-2-37 testing. The IEC 60601-2-37 standard describes the criteria for basic safety and performance of electrical medical devices used in ultrasonic diagnostics.

While the said standard was being designed, the main approach to the safety of ultrasonic diagnostic devices was to ensure compliance with the IEC 60601-2 xx series standards applied to other diagnostic methods such as X-ray equipment and magnetic resonance systems.

As the complexity of output indicators and controls in ultrasonic medical diagnosis and imaging equipment increases, the safety standard becomes more important. Therefore, for all these diagnostic methods, it is the operator's responsibility to understand the risk of exit from ultrasonic diagnostic devices and act appropriately to obtain the necessary diagnostic information with the lowest risk to the patient.

Today, medical imaging devices and systems have a very important place in the diagnosis and treatment of diseases. Medical imaging is making the internal structure of the human body visible with technological possibilities.

Along with ultrasonic imaging, x-ray, computed tomography and magnetic resonance, it is one of the four basic methods of studies in this field. High-frequency sound waves are used in ultrasonographic imaging and sound energy is converted into an image.
