Introduction
In the field of dentistry, intraoral cameras have been used in the oral cavity of patients for many years.
The intraoral camera provides dentists with an aid which is able to significantly improve communication
with the patient, facilitate documentation and raise the diagnostics to another qualitative level.
Technological advancement enables the continuous development of new and improved intraoral
cameras, the handling of which is becoming easier and the possible applications of which are becoming
more extensive.
These intraoral cameras are produced by the dental industry as high-quality medical devices under
recognized quality management systems.
In order to maintain this high level of quality, this document describes the applicable technical product
features.
This document refers to IEC 60601-1, the basic standard on safety of medical electrical equipment, by
stating the respective clause numbers of IEC 60601-1 and IEC 80601-2-60.

intraoral camera
optical handpiece for use in the oral cavity of the patient to assist with diagnosis and facilitate patient
information and treatment
3.2
patient side of intraoral camera
intraoral camera (3.1) part which is designed to be introduced into the oral cavity
Note 1 to entry: See Figure 1.
3.3
resolving power
ability to distinguish between points or lines of an object which are close together in an image
Note 1 to entry: The resolving power is defined as the line frequency in line pairs per millimetre (lp/mm), which
is still resolved with a contrast transfer function of 20 %.
Note 2 to entry: A high resolving power means that the resolved distance is small.
Note 3 to entry: Unless otherwise specified, this term relates to distances perpendicular to the optical axis.
3.4
contrast transfer function
CTF
measurement describing the resolving power (3.3) by the number of equidistant black and white lines
per millimetre which can still be resolved with a certain contrast (in per cent)
EXAMPLE 5 lp/mm = 5 line pairs per millimetre.

3.5
dynamic range
ratio between the smallest and largest detectable light energy
Note 1 to entry: The dynamic range can be defined as a pure ratio (1:n) or in decibels [10 lg(n)].
Note 2 to entry: In a camera sensor, it is typically around 1:20 000. Since its signal is quantized during digital
processing, however, the bit depth is the limiting factor. For example, a dynamic range of just 1:255 is achieved
with 8 bits.
Note 3 to entry: The optics are another limiting factor.
3.6
signal-to-noise ratio
fluctuation overlaying the signal in proportion to the signal average value
Note 1 to entry: Standard deviation is noise.

Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards
bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out
through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical
committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International
organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work.
ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of
electrotechnical standardization.
The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are
described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular, the different approval criteria needed for the
different types of ISO documents should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the
editorial rules of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www .iso .org/ directives).
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of
patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. Details of
any patent rights identified during the development of the document will be in the Introduction and/or

Introduction
In the field of dentistry, intraoral cameras have been used in the oral cavity of the patient for many
years. The intraoral camera provides the dentist with an aid which is able to significantly improve
communication with the patient, facilitate documentation and raise the diagnostics to another
qualitative level.
Technological advancement enables the continuous development of new and improved intraoral
cameras, the handling of which is becoming easier and the possible applications of which are becoming
more extensive.
These intraoral cameras are produced by the dental industry as high-quality medical devices under
recognised quality management systems.
In order to maintain this high level of quality, this document describes the applicable technical product
features.
This document refers to IEC 60601-1, the basic standard on safety of medical electrical equipment,
wherever by stating the respective clause numbers of IEC 60601-1 and IEC 80601-2-60.

a) powered polymerization activators for polymerization of dental materials;
b) exclusively extraoral camera equipment to prepare overviews or to record treatments;
c) dental microscopes for minimally invasive treatments;
d) medical endoscopes;
e) camera handpieces for tooth illumination (transillumination);
f) CAD/CAM scanner handpieces;
g) combinations of dental instruments with camera functions;
h) cameras for endodontic purposes;
i) devices for root canal inspection (endoscopic microcameras);
j) cameras for tool navigation;
k) cameras for determination of tooth colour.
