Scope

YY 9706.233-2021 is the English-translated version of 医用电气设备 第2-33部分:医疗诊断用磁共振设备的基本安全和基本性能专用要求.

YY 9706.233 is the mandatory Chinese standard for diagnostic MRI equipment. MRI presents hazards no other imaging modality does: a static field strong enough to turn a steel object into a projectile, gradient switching that stimulates peripheral nerves and produces damaging acoustic noise, and radiofrequency energy that heats tissue and implanted metal. This standard sets the particular requirements for basic safety and essential performance on top of the general medical electrical safety standard, covering the limits on each of those exposures, the controlled access to the magnet room, the emergency provisions including quench, and the information given to operators and patients. At more than fifty thousand words it is one of the longest in the series. Being a YY standard without the /T suffix, compliance is compulsory. It took effect in May 2023.

Foreword

This document was issued on 9 March 2021 by the National Medical Products Administration and takes effect on 1 May 2023.

It is a YY standard without the /T suffix: compliance is mandatory in China.

It is classified under Chinese classification C43.

All technical content in this section is mandatory. The "Medical Electrical Equipment" series of standards is divided into two parts.

---Part 1: General and parallel requirements;

---Part 2: Special requirements. This part is part 2-33. This section was drafted in accordance with the rules given in GB/T 1.1-2009. This part replaces YY 0319-2008 "Medical Electrical Equipment Part 2-33: Special Requirements for the Safety of Magnetic Resonance Equipment for Medical Diagnosis Compared with YY 0319-2008, the main technical changes in this part are as follows.

---Added the requirements of the compatibility technical specification sheet [see.201.7.9.3.101b)];

---Added functional requirements in the user interface [see.201.7.9.2.101w)];

---Modified the SAR limit (mainly for temperature and local SAR, see.201.12.4.103, 51.103 of YY 0319-2008);

---Modified the static magnetic field protection limit (see.201.12.4.104, 51.104 of YY 0319-2008);

--- Increased the maximum radio frequency absorbed energy dose limit (see.201.12.4.103.2 for details);

---Added the options of "Fixed Parameter Options" (see.201.12.4.106 for details);

---Modified the noise measurement method (see Appendix BB, 26 of YY 0319-2008). This part uses the redrafting law to amend and adopt IEC 60601-2-33.2015 "Medical Electrical Equipment Part 2-33: For Medical Diagnosis Special Requirements for the Safety of Magnetic Resonance Equipment. The technical differences between this part and IEC 60601-2-33.2015 and the reasons are as follows.

---Regarding normative reference documents, this section has made adjustments with technical differences to adapt to my country's technical conditions and adjustments. The situation is collectively reflected in Chapter.201.2 "Normative Reference Documents", and the specific adjustments are as follows. * Replace IEC 60601-1-2.2014 with YY 9706.102 which is modified to adopt international standards; * Replace IEC 60601-1.2012 with GB 9706.1 which is modified to adopt international standards; * Due to non-standard quotation of IEC 60601-1-6.2013, IEC 60601-1-6.2013 was deleted; * Due to non-standard quotation of IEC 60601-1-8.2012, IEC 60601-1-8.2012 is deleted; * Deleted NEMAMS4.2010; * Deleted NEMAMS8.2008.

---In order to match GB 9706.1-2020, the content of the electromagnetic compatibility part of the standard, IEC 60601-1-2 quoted by the original text. 2014 was revised to quote the content of IEC 60601-1-2.2007. This section also made the following editorial changes.

---Informative appendix BB is added, and the content refers to NEMAMS4.2010;
