QIBA FDG-PET ROI Definition Workgroup
The goals of this workgroup are:
- 1) To survey the existing ROI capabilities and definitions on workstations being used for PET image interpretation.
- 2) To make recommendations for common ROI definitions to be implemented by all vendors.
- 3) To guide the implementation of the recommended definitions.
Items to consider include, but are not limited to:
- 2D vs. 3D ROI's
- ROI's defined in different orthogonal planes
- Meaning of circular ROI's (which pixels are included; is there weighting?)
- Thresholding capabilities
- ROI's on zoomed images
