Magnetic Field Hazard
The indicative values of electromagnetic fields around the nozzle are defined
according to tests established against ICNIRP #74:1998, IEEE C95.1:2005 and IEEE
C93.3:2002 series). These values are of importance to evaluate the impact on
implantable medical devices for patients and anyone else carrying such device.
The tests state values for fixed or low frequency (<= 100 kHz) / high frequency
(> 100 kHz) fields by type of TR, treatment mode, and nozzle type, as follows:
FBTR, PBS, Dedicated Nozzle
at isocenter: < 2.5 μT* / < 1 V/m*
at nozzle contact: < 2.5 μT* / < 1 V/m*
IBTR, PBS, Full Universal Nozzle
at isocenter: < 2.5 μT* / < 1 V/m*
at nozzle contact: < 2.5 μT* / < 1 V/m*
IBTR, US, Universal Nozzle
at isocenter: < 2.5 μT* / < 1 V/m*
at nozzle contact: < 2.5 μT* / < 1 V/m*
GTR, PBS, Dedicated Nozzle
at isocenter: < 2.5 μT* / < 1 V/m*
at nozzle contact: < 2.5 μT* / < 1 V/m*
GTR, PBS, Full Universal Nozzle
at isocenter: < 30.52 μT / < 1 V/m*
at nozzle contact: < 20.25 μT / < 1 V/m*
GTR, DS, Universal Nozzle
at isocenter: < 2.5 μT* / < 1 V/m*
at nozzle contact: < 2.5 μT* / < 1 V/m*
*: the values measured have been identified below the levels of 2.5 μT or 1 V/m.
Note: It is possible that one or more type of TR, treatment mode and/or nozzle type
from the above list are not available at your PT center.
