This standard specifies the measurement conditions and methods for the acoustic power and field characteristic parameters of high intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) in water within the frequency range of 0.5MHz~5MHz.
This standard is applicable to the HIFU system.
Note 1: International system of units (SI) is adopted in this standard. However, it may be more convenient to use other units in some parameter descriptions, such as beam area and acoustic intensity parameters. For example, the unit of beam area can be cm2, and that of sound intensity can be W/cm2 or kW/cm2.
Note 2: The measurement scope specified in this standard is as follows: power not more than 500W and acoustic intensity not more than 5,000W/cm2.
