QIBA for Imaging Vendors

QIBA Mission: Improve the value and practicality of quantitative imaging biomarkers by reducing variability across devices, sites, patients, and time.

QIBA develops Profile documents that standardize methods for creating a specific biomarker with predictable performance (accuracy and reproducibility).

Vendors of imaging devices benefit from QIBA by:

Imaging Device Vendors use QIBA by:

• implementing features and meeting performance requirements assigned to the Acquisition Modality (and sometimes Reconstruction Software) in the QIBA Profile
• assessing their conformance as described in the QIBA Profile checklist
• publishing a formal QIBA Conformance Statement documenting their product conformance to a given QIBA profile
• communicating conformance to customers by providing the QIBA Conformance Statement
• potentially supporting the activity of customers working to assess their own conformance to the QIBA profile
