Lasers and laser-related equipment — Test methods for laser-induced damage threshold — Classification of medical beam delivery systems

Summary

This document specifies a method of testing the laser-induced ignition and damage of medical beam
delivery systems to allow checking of suitable products according to the classification system.
NOTE 1 Take care when interpreting these results, since the direct applicability of the results of this test
method to the clinical situation has not been fully established.
NOTE 2 Users of products tested by this method are cautioned that the laser will be wavelength sensitive and
tested at the wavelength for which it is intended to be used. If tested using other wavelengths, the power settings
and modes of beam delivery need to be explicitly stated.
CAUTION — This test method can involve hazardous materials, operations and equipment. This
document provides advice on minimizing some of the risks associated with its use but does not
purport to address all such risks. It is the responsibility of the user of this document to establish
appropriate safety and health practices and to determine the applicability of regulatory
limitations prior to use.
