EN IEC 62985:2019

Methods for calculating size specific dose estimates (SSDE) on computed tomography

IEC 62985:2019 applies to – CT SCANNERS that are able to display and report CTDIVOL in accordance with IEC 60601-2-44, and – RADIATION dose index monitoring software (RDIMS) for the purpose of calculating, displaying and recording the SIZE SPECIFIC DOSE ESTIMATE (SSDE) and its associated components. Specifically, this document provides standardized methods and requirements for calculating, displaying, or recording of SSDE, SSDE(z), WATER EQUIVALENT DIAMETER (DW), and DW(z), where z represents a specific longitudinal position of the scanned object. This document provides a method of determining a reference WATER EQUIVALENT DIAMETER, DW,REF(z), using CT scans of two cylindrical water PHANTOMS and one or more anthropomorphic PHANTOM(S), which conform to the specifications defined in this document. The method of calculating the WATER EQUIVALENT DIAMETER that is implemented by the MANUFACTURER, DW,IMP(z), is tested and validated against DW,REF(z) using the TEST OBJECTS and methods defined within this document. This document also describes the methods for calculating SSDE and DW, which represent the average values of SSDE(z) and DW(z) over the RECONSTRUCTION LENGTH.

Méthodes de calcul de l’estimateur de dose morphologique (SSDE) en tomodensitométrie

L'IEC 62985:2019 s’applique: – aux TOMODENSITOMETRES qui sont capables d’afficher et de notifier CTDIVOL conformément à l’IEC 60601-2-44, et – au logiciel de surveillance de l’indice de dose de RAYONNEMENT (RDIMS - RADIATION Dose Index Monitoring Software) pour les besoins de calcul, d’affichage et d’enregistrement de l’ESTIMATEUR DE DOSE MORPHOLOGIQUE (SSDE) et de ses composantes associées. Plus spécifiquement, le présent document fournit des méthodes et des exigences normalisées pour le calcul, l’affichage ou l’enregistrement du SSDE, du SSDE(z), du DIAMETRE EQUIVALENT EAU (DW), et de DW(z), où z représente une position longitudinale spécifique de l’objet balayé. Le présent document fournit une méthode permettant de déterminer un DIAMETRE EQUIVALENT EAU de référence, DW,REF(z), par balayage TOMOGRAPHIQUE de deux FANTOMES d’eau cylindriques et d’un ou plusieurs FANTOMES anthropomorphiques conformes aux spécifications définies dans le présent document. La méthode de calcul du DIAMETRE EQUIVALENT EAU appliquée par le FABRICANT, DW,IMP(z), est vérifiée par essai et validée par rapport à la valeur DW,REF(z) en utilisant les OBJETS D’ESSAI et les méthodes définis dans le présent document. Le présent document décrit également les méthodes de calcul du SSDE et DW, qui représentent les valeurs moyennes du SSDE(z) et du DW(z) sur l’ensemble de la LONGUEUR DE RECONSTRUCTION.

Metode za izračun doze obsevanja glede na velikost obsevanca (SSDE) pri računalniški tomografiji (IEC 62985:2019)

Ta dokument se uporablja za: – NAPRAVE CT, ki lahko prikazujejo in poročajo CTDIVOL v skladu s standardom IEC 60601-2-44; in – programsko opremo za spremljanje indeksa odmerka OBSEVANJA (RDIMS) za namene izračunavanja, prikazovanja ter beleženja DOZE OBSEVANJA GLEDE NA VELIKOST OBSEVANCA (SSDE) in njenih povezanih komponent. Natančneje, ta dokument podaja standardizirane metode in zahteve za izračunavanje, prikazovanje ali beleženje SSDE, SSDE(z), VODNEGA EKVIVALENTNEGA PREMERA (DW) in DW(z), pri čemer z označuje določen vzdolžni položaj slikanega objekta. Ta dokument določa metodo za določevanje referenčnega VODNEGA EKVIVALENTNEGA PREMERA, DR,REF(z), s slikanji CT dveh valjastih vodnih FANTOMOV in enega ali več antropomorfnih FANTOMOV, ki so skladni s specifikacijami, določenimi v tem dokumentu. Metoda za izračun VODNEGA EKVIVALENTNEGA PREMERA, ki jo uporablja PROIZVAJALEC, DW,IMP(z), se preskuša in potrdi glede na DW,REF(z) z uporabo PRESKUSNIH OBJEKTOV in metod, določenih v tem dokumentu. Ta dokument opisuje tudi metode za izračun SSDE in DW, ki predstavljata povprečni vrednosti SSDE(z) in DW(z) na DOLŽINI REKONSTRUKCIJE.
