Goal:
Proposed Protocol
Q. Should we propose two protocols 1) for high resolution; and (2) for world-wide trials in patients with late stage disease?
Related Work
Defining Acquisition Protocols
ACRIN has defined a number of protocols for CT-based clinical trials.
- CT Lung Specific protocols and QA procedures are discussed in work done for the ACRIN National Lung Screening Trial
Reviewing Acquisition Protocols
UPICT is preparing a process for proposing/reviewing protocols and has access to experts for reviews.
It would likely be beneficial to review our proposed protocols with them.
Storing/Transfering Acquisition Protocols
DICOM is working on a format for encoding acquisition protocols as DICOM objects which can be stored/retrieved.
Field Testing Acquisition Protocols
Q. Should we broadcast our proposed protocols for general use in pharma trials that are starting up now, before we complete our profiles and groundwork?
