What is BS 5724-3.26 - Method for declaring parameters for ultrasonic diagnostic equipment using test objects about?
BS 5724 is a European standard that discusses medical electrical equipment. BS 5724-3.26 outlines the performance parameters to be stated in documents accompanying ultrasonic medical diagnostic equipment, together with methods for evaluating its performance using specified test objects to manufacture efficient ultrasonic diagnostic equipment.
The object of BS 5724-3.26 is to permit the direct comparison of ultrasonic medical diagnostic equipment of different manufacturers and to standardize methods for the determination of compliance with the manufacturer’s declared performance.
Note: BS 5724-3.26 does not cover doppler effect facilities of ultrasonic medical diagnostic equipment.
Who is BS 5724-3.26 - Method for declaring parameters for ultrasonic diagnostic equipment using test objects for?
BS 5724-3.26 on method for declaring parameters for ultrasonic diagnostic equipment using test objects is useful for:
- Manufacturers of ultrasonic diagnostic equipment
- Test centres and medical laboratories
- Regulatory authorities
Why should you use BS 5724-3.26 - Method for declaring parameters for ultrasonic diagnostic equipment using test objects?
Ultrasonic diagnostic equipment s equipment that applies ultrasonic waves to an object and maps its internal shape on the rebounding waves. In the medical field, it is used in the examination of internal organs, foetuses, and other parts of the human body.
BS 5724-3.26 assists you with preliminary test conditions, operating conditions, performance parameters, resolution, dead zone, slice thickness, depths of penetration, displayed dynamic range, magnification errors, registration error, the accuracy of the calliper, and presentation of performance parameters.
With compliance to BS 5724-3.26, you can standardize methods for the determination of compliance with the manufacturer’s declared performance. In addition, assist in the direct comparison of ultrasonic medical diagnostic equipment from different manufacturers.
