EN IEC 63009:2019

Ultrasonics - Physiotherapy systems - Field specifications and methods of measurement in the frequency range 20 kHz to 500 kHz

IEC 63009:2019 is applicable to ultrasonic equipment designed for physiotherapy containing an ultrasonic transducer generating ultrasound in the frequency range 20 kHz to 500 kHz. This document only relates to ultrasonic physiotherapy equipment employing a single plane non-focusing circular transducer per treatment head, producing static beams perpendicular to the face of the treatment head. This document specifies: • methods of measurement and characterization of the output of ultrasonic physiotherapy equipment based on reference testing methods; • characteristics to be specified by manufacturers of ultrasonic physiotherapy equipment; • methods of measurement and characterization of the output of ultrasonic physiotherapy equipment based on routine testing methods; • acceptance criteria for aspects of the output of ultrasonic physiotherapy equipment. The therapeutic value and methods of use of ultrasonic physiotherapy equipment are not within the scope of this document. Excluded equipment includes, but is not limited to: • equipment in which ultrasound waves are intended to destroy conglomerates (for example stones in the kidneys or the bladder) or tissue of any type; • equipment in which a tool is driven by ultrasound (for example surgical scalpels, phacoemulsifiers, dental scalers or intracorporeal lithotripters); • equipment in which ultrasound waves are intended to sensitize tissue to further therapies (for example radiation or chemotherapy); • equipment in which ultrasound waves are intended to treat cancerous (i.e., malignant) or pre-cancerous tissue, or benign masses, such as High Intensity Focused Ultrasound (HIFU) or High Intensity Therapeutic Ultrasound (HITU).

Ultrasons - Systèmes de physiothérapie - Spécifications des champs et méthodes de mesure dans la plage de fréquences de 20 kHz à 500 kHz

L'IEC 63009:2019 est applicable aux appareils à ultrasons, conçus pour la physiothérapie, comprenant un transducteur ultrasonique fournissant des ultrasons dans la plage de fréquences de 20 kHz à 500 kHz. Le présent document ne traite que des appareils à ultrasons pour physiothérapie employant un seul transducteur circulaire plan sans focalisation par transducteur, produisant des faisceaux statiques perpendiculaires à la face du transducteur. Le présent document spécifie: • les méthodes de mesure et la caractérisation de la sortie des appareils à ultrasons pour physiothérapie, reposant sur des méthodes d’essai de référence; • les caractéristiques à préciser par les fabricants des appareils à ultrasons pour physiothérapie; • les méthodes de mesure et la caractérisation de la sortie des appareils à ultrasons pour physiothérapie, reposant sur des méthodes d’essai de routine; • les critères d’aptitude concernant les divers aspects de la sortie des appareils à ultrasons pour physiothérapie. La valeur thérapeutique et les modes d’utilisation des appareils à ultrasons pour physiothérapie ne relèvent pas du domaine d’application du présent document. Les appareils exclus comprennent entre autres: • les appareils avec lesquels les ondes ultrasonores sont destinées à détruire des conglomérats (par exemple, des calculs rénaux ou biliaires) ou des tissus de tout type; • les appareils avec lesquels un outil est entraîné par ultrasons (par exemple, scalpels chirurgicaux, phacoémulseurs, instruments à détartrer dentaires ou lithotriteurs intracorporels); • les appareils avec lesquels les ondes ultrasonores sont destinées à sensibiliser les tissus à d’autres thérapies (par exemple, rayonnement ou chimiothérapie); • les appareils avec lesquels les ondes ultrasonores sont destinées à traiter les tissus cancéreux (c’est-à-dire malins) ou précancéreux, voire les masses bénignes. Il s’agit par exemple des ultrasons focalisés de haute intensité (HIFU, high intensity focused ultrasound) ou des ultrasons thérapeutiques de haute intensité (HITU, high intensity therapeutic ultrasound).

Ultrazvok - Fizioterapevtski sistemi - Poljske specifikacije in merilne metode v frekvenčnem območju od 20 kHz do 500 kHz (IEC 63009:2019)

Ta standard se navezuje na ultrazvočno opremo, namenjeno fizioterapiji, ki vključuje ultrazvočni pretvornik za ustvarjanje ultrazvoka v frekvenčnem območju od 20 kHz do 500 kHz. Ta dokument se navezuje samo na ultrazvočno fizioterapevtsko opremo, ki uporablja enoravninski neosrediščeni krožni pretvornik na glavo za obdelavo, ki proizvaja statične snope, pravokotne na ploskev glave za obdelavo. Ta dokument določa: – metode merjenja in karakterizacije izhoda ultrazvočne fizioterapevtske opreme na podlagi referenčnih preskusnih metod; – lastnosti, ki jih morajo navesti proizvajalci ultrazvočne fizioterapevtske opreme; – metode merjenja in karakterizacije izhoda ultrazvočne fizioterapevtske opreme na podlagi rutinskih preskusnih metod; – kriterije sprejemljivosti za vidike izhoda ultrazvočne fizioterapevtske opreme. Ta dokument ne zajema terapevtske vrednosti in metod uporabe opreme za ultrazvočno fizioterapijo. Izključena oprema med drugim zajema: – opremo, pri kateri so ultrazvočni valovi namenjeni uničenju konglomeratov (na primer kamnov v ledvicah ali mehurju) ali kakršnih koli tkiv; – opremo, pri kateri ultrazvok poganja orodje (na primer kirurški skalpeli, fakoemulzifikatorji, priprave za odstranjevanje zobnega kamna ali znotrajtelesni litotripterji); – opremo, pri kateri so ultrazvočni valovi namenjeni senzibilizaciji tkiva za nadaljnje zdravljenje (na primer obsevanje ali kemoterapijo); – opremo, pri kateri so ultrazvočni valovi namenjeni zdravljenju rakavih (tj. malignih) ali predrakavih tkiv ali benignih gmot, kot je izjemno intenziven in osredotočen ultrazvok (HIFU) ali izjemno intenziven terapevtski ultrazvok (HITU).
