17、sion) is a worldwide organization for standardization comprisingall national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of the IEC is to promoteinternational co-operation on all questions concerning standardization in the electrical and electronic fields. Tothis end and in add
18、ition to other activities, the IEC publishes International Standards. Their preparation isentrusted to technical committees; any IEC National Committee interested in the subject dealt with mayparticipate in this preparatory work. International, governmental and non-governmental organizations liaisin
19、gwith the IEC also participate in this preparation. The IEC collaborates closely with the International Organizationfor Standardization (ISO) in accordance with conditions determined by agreement between the twoorganizations.2) The formal decisions or agreements of the IEC on technical matters expre
20、ss, as nearly as possible, aninternational consensus of opinion on the relevant subjects since each technical committee has representationfrom all interested National Committees.3) The documents produced have the form of recommendations for international use and are published in the formof standards
21、, technical reports or guides and they are accepted by the National Committees in that sense.4) In order to promote international unification, IEC National Committees undertake to apply IEC InternationalStandards transparently to the maximum extent possible in their national and regional standards.
22、Anydivergence between the IEC Standard and the corresponding national or regional standard shall be clearlyindicated in the latter.5) The IEC provides no marking procedure to indicate its approval and cannot be rendered responsible for anyequipment declared to be in conformity with one of its standa
23、rds.6) Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this International Standard may be the subjectof patent rights. The IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.The main task of IEC technical committees is to prepare International Standard
24、s. Inexceptional circumstances, a technical committee may propose the publication of a technicalreport of one of the following types: type 1, when the required support cannot be obtained for the publication of anInternational Standard, despite repeated efforts; type 2, when the subject is still unde
25、r technical development or where for any otherreason there is the future but no immediate possibility of an agreement on an InternationalStandard; type 3, when a technical committee has collected data of a different kind from thatwhich is normally published as an International Standard, for example
26、“state of the art“.Technical reports of types 1 and 2 are subject to review within three years of publication todecide whether they can be transformed into International Standards. Technical reports oftype 3 do not necessarily have to be reviewed until the data they provide are considered to beno lo
27、nger valid or useful.IEC 61852, which is a technical report of type 3, has been prepared by subcommittee 62C:Equipment for radiotherapy, nuclear medicine and radiation dosimetry, of IEC technicalcommittee 62: Electrical equipment in medical practice.Copyright International Electrotechnical Commissio

The intent of these objec
35、ts is to support the transfer ofradiotherapy-related data between devices found within and outside a radiotherapy department.They are not, however, intended to support the management of the transferred data, a functionwhich may be addressed in future revisions of the DICOM Standard.This task of proc
36、ess management has not been addressed in the current draft due to theabsence of a consistent process model for a radiotherapy department, especially in aninternational context. As a result, the radiotherapy information objects contain a large numberof conditional and optional data elements. Essentia
37、lly the objects are intended to be used as“containers” for related radiotherapy data, with data being added as the object flows throughthe department.Copyright International Electrotechnical Commission Provided by IHS under license with IECNot for ResaleNo reproduction or networking permitted withou

39、wing information objects:1) A DICOM Image Information Object for Radiotherapy. It specifies the semantic content ofRT Images. It is commonly abbreviated to the RT Image IOD. It also includes thecorresponding Storage SOP Class so that this IOD can be used in Network and MediaStorage exchanges. The sc
40、ope of the RT Image IOD is radiotherapy images which havebeen obtained on a conic imaging geometry, such as that found on conventional simulatorsand portal imaging devices. It can also be used for calculated images using the samegeometry, such as digitally reconstructed radiographs (DRRs).2) A DICOM
41、 Dose Information Object for Radiotherapy. It specifies the semantic content of RTDoses. It is commonly abbreviated to the RT Dose IOD. It also includes the correspondingStorage SOP Class so that this IOD can be used in Network and Media Storage exchanges.The scope of the RT Dose IOD is radiotherapy
42、 dose distributions which have beencalculated on a radiotherapy treatment planning system, represented as two- or three-dimensional dose grids, groups of named or unnamed dose points, isodose curves, anddose-volume histograms (DVHs).3) A DICOM Structure Set Information Object for Radiotherapy. It sp
43、ecifies the semanticcontent of RT Structure Sets. It is commonly abbreviated to the RT Structure Set IOD. Italso includes the corresponding Storage SOP Class so that this IOD can be used inNetwork and Media Storage exchanges. The scope of the RT Structure Set IOD isradiotherapy patient-related struc
44、tures which have been identified on devices such as CTscanners, virtual simulation workstations, or treatment planning systems.4) A DICOM Plan Information Object for Radiotherapy. It specifies the semantic content of RT(Treatment) Plans. It is commonly abbreviated to the RT Plan IOD. It also include
45、s thecorresponding Storage SOP Class so that this IOD can be used in Network and MediaStorage exchanges. The scope of the RT Plan IOD is geometric and dosimetric dataspecifying a course of external beam and/or brachytherapy treatment.This report includes a number of addenda to existing Parts of DICO
