Ultrasonics - Transducers - Definitions and measurement methods regarding focusing for the transmitted fields (IEC 61828:2020)
IEC 61828:2020
- provides definitions for the transmitted field characteristics of focusing and nonfocusing transducers for applications in medical ultrasound;
- relates these definitions to theoretical descriptions, design, and measurement of the transmitted fields of focusing transducers;
- gives measurement methods for obtaining defined field characteristics of focusing and nonfocusing transducers;
- specifies beam axis alignment methods appropriate for focusing and nonfocusing transducers.
IEC 61828:2021 relates to focusing ultrasonic transducers operating in the frequency range appropriate to medical ultrasound (0,5 MHz to 40 MHz) for both therapeutic and diagnostic applications. It shows how the characteristics of the transmitted field of transducers can be described from the point of view of design, as well as measured by someone with no prior knowledge of the construction details of a particular device. The transmitted ultrasound field for a specified excitation is measured by a hydrophone in either a standard test medium (for example, water) or in a given medium. This document applies only to media where the field behaviour is essentially like that in a fluid (i.e. where the influence of shear waves and elastic anisotropy is small), including soft tissues and tissue-mimicking gels. Any aspects of the field that affect their theoretical description or are important in design are also included. These definitions would have use in scientific communications, system design and description of the performance and safety of systems using these devices.
IEC 61828:2021 incorporates definitions from other related standards where possible, and supplies more specific terminology, both for defining focusing characteristics and for providing a basis for measurement of these characteristics.
IEC 61828:2021 cancels and replaces the first edition published in 2001. This edition constitutes a technical revision.
This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous edition:
a) Clause 6 on Measurement procedures has been replaced by Clause 6: "Acoustic field measurement: equipment" and Clause 7: "Measurement procedure" and related definitions.
b) Reorganization of definitions and measurement section to accommodate specific sets of measurements for focusing, nonlinearity, beam axis alignment, beam area, beam maximum, numerical projection, plane wave, high intensity therapeutic ultrasound, multiple sources, spatial impulse response and compound plane waves. Clause 3 has been moved to Annex B.
c) The normative references have been updated and the Bibliography has been expanded from 8 to 40 references.
d) Twelve figures have been updated and seven new figures (B.1, B.3, B.7, B.10, B.11, B.12, B.13, B.14) have been added to facilitate measurements and be consistent with measurement terminology.
e) New measurements have been added for time delays, arrays, plane waves and spatial impulse response.
f) Annex A has been expanded to provide general guidance on pulsed waves, system responses, focusing gains and minimum beamwidth estimation.
g) New annexes have been added:

L'IEC 61828:2020
– donne les définitions des caractéristiques du champ transmis de transducteurs focalisants et non focalisants pour des applications ultrasonores médicales;
– établit la relation entre ces définitions et les descriptions théoriques, la conception et le mesurage des champs transmis par des transducteurs focalisants;
– donne des méthodes de mesure pour l'obtention de caractéristiques du champ définies des transducteurs focalisants et non focalisants;
– donne des méthodes d'alignement de l'axe du faisceau adaptées aux transducteurs focalisants et non focalisants.
Le présent document se réfère à des transducteurs ultrasoniques focalisants fonctionnant dans la plage de fréquences appropriée pour des applications ultrasonores médicales (soit de 0,5 MHz à 40 MHz) aussi bien thérapeutiques que diagnostiques. Le présent document spécifie comment les caractéristiques du champ transmis par les transducteurs peuvent être décrites du point de vue de la conception et mesurées par une personne n'ayant aucune connaissance préalable des détails de construction d'un appareil spécifique. Le champ ultrasonique émis pour une excitation spécifiée est mesuré par un hydrophone dans un milieu d'essai normalisé (de l'eau, par exemple) ou dans un milieu donné. Le présent document s'applique uniquement à des milieux dans lesquels le comportement du champ est essentiellement similaire à celui constaté dans un fluide (c'est-à-dire dans lesquels l'influence des ondes tourbillonnaires et de l'anisotropie élastique est faible), cela comprenant les tissus mous et les gels imitant un tissu. Tous les aspects du champ affectant leur description théorique ou qui sont importants pour la conception sont aussi inclus. Ces définitions sont utiles dans des communications scientifiques, pour la conception d'appareils et pour la description du rendement et de la sécurité de systèmes utilisant ces dispositifs.
Le présent document reprend, lorsque c’est possible, quelques définitions d'autres normes connexes et fournit une terminologie plus spécifique, aussi bien pour la définition des caractéristiques de focalisation que pour procurer une base pour le mesurage de ces caractéristiques.
L'IEC 61828:2020 annule et remplace la première édition parue en 2001. Cette édition constitue une révision technique.
Cette édition inclut les modifications techniques majeures suivantes par rapport à l'édition précédente:
a) L'Article 6 relative aux procédures de mesure a été remplacé par l'Article 6: "Mesurage du champ acoustique: équipement", et par l'Article 7: "Procédure de mesure" et définitions connexes.
b) Réorganisation des définitions et de la section relative aux mesurages pour établir un ensemble spécifique de mesurages pour la focalisation, la non-linéarité, l'alignement de l'axe du faisceau, la surface du faisceau, le maximum de faisceau, la projection numérique, l'onde plane, les ultrasons thérapeutiques de haute intensité, les sources multiples, la réponse impulsionnelle spatiale et les ondes planes composées. L’Article 3 a été transféré à l’Annexe B.
c) Les références normatives ont été mises à jour et la Bibliographie étendue de 8 à 40 références.
d) Douze figures ont été mises à jour et sept autres (Figures B.1, B.3, B.7, B.10, B.11, B.12, B.13, B.14) ont été ajoutées pour faciliter les mesurages et assurer la cohérence avec la terminologie de mesure.

ULTRASONICS –TRANSDUCERS – DEFINITIONS AND MEASUREMENT
METHODS REGARDING FOCUSING FOR THE TRANSMITTED FIELDS
FOREWORD
1) The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) is a worldwide organization for standardization comprising
all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of IEC is to promote international
co-operation on all questions concerning standardization in the electrical and electronic fields. To this end and
in addition to other activities, IEC publishes International Standards, Technical Specifications, Technical Reports,
Publicly Available Specifications (PAS) and Guides (hereafter referred to as "IEC Publication(s)"). Their
preparation is entrusted to technical committees; any IEC National Committee interested in the subject dealt with
may participate in this preparatory work. International, governmental and non-governmental organizations liaising
with the IEC also participate in this preparation. IEC collaborates closely with the International Organization for
Standardization (ISO) in accordance with conditions determined by agreement between the two organizations.
2) The formal decisions or agreements of IEC on technical matters express, as nearly as possible, an international
consensus of opinion on the relevant subjects since each technical committee has representation from all
interested IEC National Committees.
3) IEC Publications have the form of recommendations for international use and are accepted by IEC National
Committees in that sense. While all reasonable efforts are made to ensure that the technical content of IEC
Publications is accurate, IEC cannot be held responsible for the way in which they are used or for any
misinterpretation by any end user.
4) In order to promote international uniformity, IEC National Committees undertake to apply IEC Publications
transparently to the maximum extent possible in their national and regional publications. Any divergence between
any IEC Publication and the corresponding national or regional publication shall be clearly indicated in the latter.
5) IEC itself does not provide any attestation of conformity. Independent certification bodies provide conformity
assessment services and, in some areas, access to IEC marks of conformity. IEC is not responsible for any
services carried out by independent certification bodies.
6) All users should ensure that they have the latest edition of this publication.
7) No liability shall attach to IEC or its directors, employees, servants or agents including individual experts and
members of its technical committees and IEC National Committees for any personal injury, property damage or
other damage of any nature whatsoever, whether direct or indirect, or for costs (including legal fees) and
expenses arising out of the publication, use of, or reliance upon, this IEC Publication or any other IEC
Publications.
8) Attention is drawn to the Normative references cited in this publication. Use of the referenced publications is
indispensable for the correct application of this publication.
9) Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this IEC Publication may be the subject of patent
rights. IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
International Standard IEC 61828 has been prepared by IEC technical committee 87:
Ultrasonics.
This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition published in 2001. This edition
constitutes a technical revision.
This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous
edition:
a) Clause 6 on Measurement procedures has been replaced by Clause 6: "Acoustic field
measurement: equipment" and Clause 7: "Measurement procedure" and related definitions.
b) Reorganization of definitions and measurement section to accommodate specific sets of
measurements for focusing, nonlinearity, beam axis alignment, beam area, beam maximum,
numerical projection, plane wave, high intensity therapeutic ultrasound, multiple sources,
spatial impulse response and compound plane waves. Clause 3 has been moved to
Annex B.
c) The normative references have been updated and the Bibliography has been expanded from
8 to 40 references.
