Active Standard

IEEE 2725.1-2024

IEEE Approved Draft Standard for Microwave Structural, Vascular, or Functional Brain Imaging Device Safety

This standard specifies requirements and guidelines, for the design of radio frequency (RF) brain imaging systems, to help protect subjects/users/patients from adverse effects from overexposure to RF electromagnetic energy, and from other electrical, mechanical, chemical, and biological hazards. This standard is limited to brain imaging devices using a brain machine interface (BMI) that intentionally couples low-level RF electromagnetic energy, in the frequency range between 10 MHz and 20 GHz, into the human head using antennas or probes in direct 6 contact with, or close proximity to, the human head.

Other Activities From This Working Group

Current projects that have been authorized by the IEEE SA Standards Board to develop a standard.


No Active Projects

Standards approved by the IEEE SA Standards Board that are within the 10-year lifecycle.


No Active Standards

These standards have been replaced with a revised version of the standard, or by a compilation of the original active standard and all its existing amendments, corrigenda, and errata.


No Superseded Standards

These standards have been removed from active status through a ballot where the standard is made inactive as a consensus decision of a balloting group.


No Inactive-Withdrawn Standards

These standards are removed from active status through an administrative process for standards that have not undergone a revision process within 10 years.


No Inactive-Reserved Standards
