2.3.2 Ceiling Requirements
Scan room height must be at least 2.5 meters (8' 2.5").
2.3.3 Wall Requirements
Operator room window
If there is an operator room, the operator must be able to view the patient from the operator
room during a scan. The location of the window depends on the position of operator room relative
to the scan room. It is recommended that the window is positioned in front of the console so that
the operator can look down the length of the bore, as illustrated in Figure 2-10: Minimal Room
Layout, p.2-17.
The recommended patient viewing window dimensions are approximately 120 cm wide by 110 cm
high (48"×42").
Consult a qualified radiological health physicist for radiation protection requirements for the window
glass (lead content and thickness), in accordance with Radiation Protection and Shielding
Requirements, p.3-1 and with local requirements.
