Vol CT needs to define a set of Profiles that ideally should:

  • get something out soon and then build on it
  • provide value starting with the first profile
  • generate clinical interest
  • generate industry interest


Propose Profile Sets here and summarize the claim for each Profile:


Primary/Regional Nodes & Metastatic Sites Profile

  • You will be able to ...

Primary, Hilar & Medistinal Lymph Nodes Profile

  • You will be able to ...

Primary Tumor and Neo/Adjuvant Rx Profile

  • You will be able to ...



Items to be considered from the January 12th, 2009 VolCT weekly call

  • Proffered claims a la UPICT bulls-eye: What assertions can we make about the information in our images? What can the information do for us, and for our human research volunteers? For ordinary patients with cancer?
  • Sequentially more complex and elegant tools/criteria/assertions?
  • Expression of what our problem is: What change do we want to measure?
  • Can we detect Progression of Disease prior to the detection of new lesions? Can we reduce the fraction of PD dx's based on new lesions?
  • Claims need to be technical in nature, not medical in nature, not philosophical.
  • Quality of information should become progressively more robust: bulls-eye model.
  • Profile claims are distinct from profile details.
  • Technical parameters of CT plus patient populations plus patient prep plus measurement/image analysis technique.
