描述了在0.5MHz至15MHz的超声频率范围内校准超声成像设备的空间测量设施和点扩展功能的方法。本标准适用于基于以下类型脉冲回波原理的超声波扫描仪: -机械部门扫描仪； -电子相控阵扇形扫描仪； -电子线阵扫描仪； -电子弯曲阵列扇形扫描仪； -基于上述四种扫描机制之一的水浴扫描仪； -三维体积重建系统。

Describes methods of calibrating the spatial measurement facilities and point-spread function of ultrasonic imaging equipment in the ultrasonic frequency range 0,5 MHz to 15 MHz. This standard is relevant for ultrasonic scanners based on the pulse echo principle of the types listed below: - mechanical sector scanners; - electronic phased-array sector scanners; - electronic linear-array scanners; - electronic curved-array sector scanners; - water bath scanners based on any of the above four scanning mechanisms; - 3D-volume reconstruction systems.
