The ordinance on protection against damage caused by X-rays (Roentgen Ordinance - RöV) was a German ordinance that made a significant contribution to avoiding any unnecessary radiation exposure for people and the environment in the context of radiation protection.
The quality requirements for X-ray equipment when using X-rays on humans as well as the necessary quality controls for the respective user by the medical and dental offices were also regulated .
In the course of a comprehensive modernization of German radiation protection law, which was largely based on Directive 2013/59 / Euratom, the provisions of the X-ray Ordinance were incorporated into the newly drafted Radiation Protection Ordinance .
