    Author: Ewen K, Huhn W, Reichow H.
    Journal: Aktuelle Radiol; 1995 Sep; 5(5):331-4. PubMed ID: 7495900.
    Abstract:
    On January 1, 1995 the law concerning medical products (Medizinproduktgesetz-MPG) came into force. It essentially regulates the production, circulation, and the putting into service of medical products as well as equipment. Among other things, the so-called active medical products include medical X-ray equipment whose aspects concerning atomic law remain covered by the radiation protection regulation for X-ray sources (RöV). Parallel to the coming into force of the MPG, the RöV was modified (Section 50, MPG), which in future might result in considerable consequences for the manufacturer, the operator, and the authorities.
