Abstract :

Test, measurement and calibration of medical equipment is becoming increasingly significant, when accuracy in diagnosis and effectiveness in treatment are required. Calibration and testing of medical devices are one of the most important and critical issue in metrology field. Metrology link is not well established for measurements in medical field; however, metrological traceability has been well established for measurements in technical and military field. For the medical device industry and applications in health sector, nothing counts more than the safety of a patient. Therefore, all hospitals and medical equipment manufacturers have to perform periodic testing and calibration of equipment, as a quality control regime that guarantees the reliability of medical devices. A feasibility study has been carried out and a report was published last year at T��B�°TAK UME (Scientific and Technological Research Council of Turkey, National Metrology Institute) in order to outline the current situation in the country and in the world. A roadmap was prepared for providing reliability and metrological traceability in medical measurements. Medical metrology research laboratory has been established and a number of medical device design projects were initiated.
