3、raphy (CT) imaging equipment by specifyingimage data transfer and archival storage methods in commonlyaccepted terms. This document is intended to be used inconjunction with Practice E2339 on Digital Imaging andCommunication in Nondestructive Evaluation (DICONDE).Practice E2339 defines an industrial

4、 adaptation of the NEMAStandards Publication titled Digital Imaging and Communica-tions in Medicine (DICOM, see http:/medical.nema.org), aninternational standard for image data acquisition, review,storage and archival storage. The goal of Practice E2339,commonly referred to as DICONDE, is to provide

5、 a standardthat facilitates the display and analysis of NDE test results onany system conforming to the DICONDE standard. Towardthat end, Practice E2339 provides a data dictionary and a set ofinformation modules that are applicable to all NDE modalities.This practice supplements Practice E2339 by pr

6、oviding infor-mation object definitions, information modules and a datadictionary that are specific to X-ray CT test methods.1.2 This practice has been developed to overcome the issuesthat arise when analyzing or archiving data from tomographictest equipment using proprietary data transfer and stora

7、gemethods. As digital technologies evolve, data must remaindecipherable through the use of open, industry-wide methodsfor data transfer and archival storage. This practice defines amethod where all the X-ray CT technique parameters and testresults are communicated and stored in a standard mannerrega

No other units of measurement are included in thisstandard.1.6 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-pri

Summary of Pract

17、ice4.1 A fundamental principle of DICONDE is the use ofstandard definitions and attribute formats for data communica-tion and storage. This means all systems that are DICONDEcompliant use a common data dictionary and common com-munication protocols. To further standardization, the elementsin the dat

18、a dictionary are organized into common groupsreferred to as information modules. The data dictionary andinformation modules common to all NDE modalities aredefined in Practice E2339.4.2 The data dictionary and information modules specifiedin Practice E2339 do not cover the information storagerequire

19、ments for each individual modality (CT, DR, CR, UT,etc.). Additions to the data dictionary and information modulesare required to support the individual modalities. This practicecontains the additions to the DICONDE data dictionary andinformation modules necessary for X-ray CT inspection.4.3 The hig

20、hest organizational level in the DICONDEinformation model is the information object definition (IOD).An information object definition is a collection of the infor-mation modules necessary to represent a set of test results froma specific modality. This practice contains information objectdefinitions

21、 for X-ray CT inspection.5. Significance and Use5.1 Personnel that are responsible for the creation, transfer,and storage of X-ray tomographic NDE data will use thisstandard. This practice defines a set of information modulesthat along with Practice E2339 and the DICOM standardprovide a standard mea

22、ns to organize X-ray tomography testparameters and results. The X-ray CT test results may bedisplayed and analyzed on any device that conforms to thisstandard. Personnel wishing to view any tomographic inspec-tion data stored according to Practice E2339 may use thisdocument to help them decode and d

23、isplay the data containedin the DICONDE-compliant inspection record.6.
