SPECT Biomarker Ctte

Project Snapshot

The SPECT Biomarker Committee seeks to develop a quantitative imaging profile for SPECT imaging.

Under consideration:

• quantifying a small structure (like the basal ganglion in the DaTscan, thyroid)
• quantifying organs, like the liver, for dosimetry as potential use cases

Established Task Forces Currently Working Toward a Profile:

• Image Acquisition and Image Processing for DaTscan – Dr. Dewaraja
• Quantitative / Image Analysis – Drs. Miyaoka and Seibyl
• Phantoms / DRO Group – Drs. Dickson and Zimmerman
• Clinical / Literature Review – Dr. Seibyl
