Applications Outage

Several applications, including GIS, are currently unavailable due to an outage. We understand the importance of these services and are actively working to restore access as quickly as possible.

Hand-Held Devices

Per RHB 1.2.7, hand-held radiographic or fluoroscopic devices are not permitted in the state of South Carolina.  Manufacturers may request a review of equipment pursuant to RHB 1.6.3 Equipment Not Covered in Regulation.

Hand-Held Dental Devices

On May 26, 2023, South Carolina Regulation 61-64, X-rays, (Title B) was revised and no longer requires an exemption for the use of hand-held dental equipment. Hand-held dental devices must meet the requirements of RHB 4.5.13 "Hand-Held X-ray System - Intraoral Equipment".

Previously issued exemptions are now void and no longer required. Facilities utilizing intraoral hand-held x-ray systems must comply with all applicable requirements of Regulation 61-64.

Please see the memorandum regarding this change.
