1、Designation: E2339 11Standard Practice forDigital Imaging and Communication in NondestructiveEvaluation (DICONDE)1This standard is issued under the fixed designation E2339; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the case of revision, the year o

2、f last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope*1.1 This practice facilitates the interoperability of NDEimaging and data acquisition equipment by specifying theimage

3、data in commonly accepted terms. This practice repre-sents a harmonization of NDE imaging systems, or modalities,with the NEMA Standards Publication titled Digital Imagingand Communications in Medicine (DICOM, see http:/medical.nema.org), an international standard for image dataacquisition, review,

4、storage and archival. In addition, thispractice will provide a standard set of industrial NDE specificinformation object definitions, which travel beyond the scopeof standard DICOM modalities. The goal of this practice is toprovide a standard by which NDE image/signal data may bedisplayed on by any

5、system conforming to the ASTM DI-CONDE format, regardless of which NDE modality was usedto acquire the data.1.2 This practice has been developed to overcome the issuesthat arise when archiving or analyzing the data from a varietyof NDE techniques, each using proprietary data acquisitionsystems. As d

6、ata acquisition modalities evolve, data acquiredin the past must remain decipherable. This practice proposes animage data file format in such a way that all the techniqueparameters, along with the image file, are preserved, regardlessof changes in NDE technology. This practice will also permitthe vi

7、ewing of a variety of image types (CT, CR, Ultrasonic,Infrared and Eddy Current) on a single workstation, maintain-ing all of the pertinent technique parameters along with theimage file. This practice addresses the exchange of digitalinformation between NDE imaging equipment.1.3 This practice does n

8、ot specify:1.3.1 A testing or validation procedure to assess an imple-mentations conformance to the standard.1.3.2 The implementation details of any features of thestandard on a device claiming conformance.1.3.3 The overall set of features and functions to be ex-pected from a system implemented by i

9、ntegrating a group ofdevices each claiming DICONDE or DICOM conformance.1.4 Although this practice contains no values that requireunits, it does describe methods to store and communicate datathat do require units to be properly interpreted. The SI unitsrequired by this practice are to be regarded as

10、 standard. Noother units of measurement are included in this standard.1.5 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is theresponsibility of the user of this standard to establish appro-priate safety and health practices and determine the

11、 applica-bility of regulatory limitations prior to use.2.

Summary of P

27、ractice4.1 The basic concept of DICOM and DICONDE is the useof standardized data identifiers. This means all participants areusing the standardized data identifiers to represent the sameinformation and have a common understanding of communi-cation protocols for mutual use.4.1.1 DICOM was developed i

28、n liaison with ACR (theAmerican College of Radiology) and NEMA (the NationalElectrical Manufacturers Association) and other Standard Or-ganizations including CEN TC251 in Europe and JIRA inJapan, with review also by other organizations including IEEE,HL7 andANSI in the USA. The DICOM Standard is str

29、ucturedas a multi-part document.4.2 This practice will contain terms and definitions thatapply to all NDT methods. DICONDE terms and definitionsthat apply to a specific NDT method will be contained in aseparate standard practice for that method as illustrated in Fig.1. This practice is intended to b

30、e used in conjunction with themethod-specific standard practices. If no method-specific prac-tice exists, the user should default back to the DICOM termsand definitions for the modality associated with that testmethod.4.3 The DICONDE practices will consist of descriptions ofthe attribute and object

31、definitions that are specific to NDE(that is, no equivalent counterpart in medicine) and providestandard database tag identifiers for use with the DICOMdatabase already in existence. The use of this practice is basedupon and to be used in conjunction with the medical DICOMFIG. 1 DICONDE Document Rel

32、ationshipsE2339 112standard. This practice, in conjunction with the DICOMstandard, will set forth the requirements for the transfer anddisplay of NDE image data from any NDE image modalitiesequipment.4.3.1 DICONDE, utilizing the existing DICOM database ofobject definitions, provides both replacement

33、 and additionalmodule definitions that represent a conversion between themedical community language present in DICOM, to theterminology appropriate for NDE. For the DICONDE prac-tices, only the attributes and object definitions that differ fromthe medical implementation will be discussed. In the cas

34、ewhere no replacement attribute or object exists, the DICOMstandard should be followed.4.4 The key to interoperability using the DICOM standard isthe conformance statement. This formal statement is associatedwith a specific implementation of the DICOM standard. Itspecifies the service classes, infor

35、mation objects, communica-tion protocols, and media storage application profiles sup-ported by the implementation. Complete information on DI-COM conformance statements, including several examples,can be found in Part 2 of the DICOM standard.4.4.1 Specific implementations of the DICONDE standardshou

36、ld also provide conformance statements. The majority ofthe conformance statement for DICONDE will be similar toDICOM. The exception being that the information objectslisted in the conformance statement should be the DICONDEspecific information objects that the implementation supports.5. Significance

37、 and Use5.1 Personnel that are responsible for the transfer of NDEdata between systems will use this standard. This practice willdefine a set of NDE information object definitions that alongwith the DICOM standard will provide a standard means toorganize image data. Once conformance statements have

38、beengenerated, the NDE image data may be displayed on anyimaging/analysis device that conforms to the standard. Thisprocess of developing conformance statements with both theNDE specific object definitions and the DICOM accepteddefinitions, will provide a means to automatically and trans-parently co

39、mmunicate between compliant equipment withoutloss of information.NOTE 1Knowledge and understanding of the existing DICOM stan-dard will be required to generate conformance statements and therebyfacilitate the data transfer.6. Information Object and Service-Object Pair ClassDefinitions6.1 Information

40、 Object Definitions6.1.1 Details of the DICOM Information Object Definitionscan be found in the DICOM Standard Part 3,AnnexesAand B.6.2 DICOM to DICONDE Information Object Definition6.2.1 The DICOM standard specifies mandatory, condi-tional, and user option information modules for each DICOMIOD. The

41、 relationship between the IODs and modules is foundin the DICOM Standard Part 3. The DICONDE standard willfollow that relationship except as noted.6.2.2 The terminology associated with certain modules ofthe DICOM information objects must be changed for use in anindustrial context. For instance, indu

42、stry deals with compo-nents not patients. In the industrial objects, the equivalentmedical information modules will be reused when possible.For example, a component information module will be as-signed to the Patient information module.6.2.3 In some cases, there will exist no equivalent medicalinfor

43、mation module for a required set of industrial data. Whenno equivalent DICOM information module exists, an industrialspecific data module will be created as part of that object.6.3 Service-Object Pair (SOP) Class Definitions:6.3.1 Details of the DICOM SOP Class Definitions can befound in the DICOM S

44、tandard, Part 4, Section 6.6.4 DICOM to DICONDE SOP Class Definitions:6.4.1 The DICOM standard defines Standard, StandardExtended, Specialized Extended and Private SOP Classes inPart 2, Section 3.11.6.4.2 To maintain compatibility with standard DICOM de-vices, the DICONDE standard will be based on S

45、tandardExtended DICOM SOP Classes as described in Part 2, Section3.11.3 of the DICOM Standard except as noted below.6.4.3 Some nondestructive testing methods do not have anequivalent medical imaging modality. An example of such atest method is Eddy Current testing. For these test methods, theDICONDE

46、 standard will define DICONDE Standard SOPClasses instead of using DICOM Standard Extended SOPClasses.6.5 Conformance:6.5.1 Since the DICONDE standard is based on StandardExtended DICOM SOP Classes, only DICOM devices withLevel 2 (Full) conformance should be used in DICONDEapplications. Level 2 (Ful

47、l) conformance ensures that all Type1, 2 and 3 as well as Private attributes will be stored and maybe accessed by the device. See DICOM Part 4, Section B.4 formore information.6.5.2 Note that test data that use DICONDE Standard SOPClasses may not be accepted or displayed by many standardDICOM image

48、display and storage tools since these SOPclasses are not used in medical applications.7. DICONDE Information Modules7.1 Information Module Definitions7.1.1 Details of the DICOM Information Module Defini-tions can be found in the DICOM Standard Part 3, Annex C.7.1.2 All data elements in the informati

49、on modules must bedescribed by an attribute name, a data element tag,avaluerepresentation (VR),avalue multiplicity (VM), and a dataelement type.7.2 DICOM to DICONDE Information Module Definition7.2.1 The terminology associated with certain elements ofthe DICOM information modules must be changed for use inan industrial context. For instance, industry deals with parts notpatients. The DICONDE standard defines industrial informa-tion modules that are equivalent to those found in the DICOMstandard. In the industrial modules, the equivalent medical dataelements
