§ 15.513 Technical requirements for medical imaging systems.
(a) The UWB bandwidth of an imaging system operating under the
provisions of this section must be contained between 3100 MHz and
10,600 MHz.
(b) Operation under the provisions of this section is limited to
medical imaging systems used at the direction of, or under the
supervision of, a licensed health care practitioner. The operation of
imaging systems under this section requires coordination, as detailed
in § 15.525.
(c) A medical imaging system shall contain a manually operated switch
that causes the transmitter to cease operation within 10 seconds of
being released by the operator. In lieu of a switch located on the
imaging system, it is permissible to operate an imaging system by
remote control provided the imaging system ceases transmission within
10 seconds of the remote switch being released by the operator.
(d) The radiated emissions at or below 960 MHz from a device operating
under the provisions of this section shall not exceed the emission
levels in § 15.209. The radiated emissions above 960 MHz from a device
operating under the provisions of this section shall not exceed the
following average limits when measured using a resolution bandwidth of
1 MHz:
Frequency in MHz EIRP in dBm
960-1610 -65.3
1610-1990 -53.3
011990-3100 -51.3
3100-10600 -41.3
Above 10600 -51.3
(e) In addition to the radiated emission limits specified in the table
in paragraph (d) of this section, UWB transmitters operating under the
provisions of this section shall not exceed the following average
limits when measured using a resolution bandwidth of no less than 1
kHz:
Frequency in MHz EIRP in dBm
1164-1240 -75.3
1559-1610 -75.3
(f) There is a limit on the peak level of the emissions contained
within a 50 MHz bandwidth centered on the frequency at which the
highest radiated emission occurs, fM. That limit is 0 dBm EIRP. It is
acceptable to employ a different resolution bandwidth, and a
correspondingly different peak emission limit, following the procedures
described in § 15.521.
