QIBA FDG-PET/CT Digital Reference Objects Technical Subcommittee Charge
The objective of this subcommittee is to build a common reference DICOM test image that can be generated by each scanner and read on PET DICOM display stations to check information fidelity (i.e. next step beyond DICOM conformance statement)
Completed:
- Collected DICOM PET/CT images of the same reference phantom from scanners from GE, Philips, Siemens
- Image data collated and compared to DICOM header information
Next Steps:
- Discussion with scanner manufacturers and 3rd party display systems to find out what information and/or resources can be *shared
- Determine expert(ise) from each company to participate in discussion
- First-pass discussion to define test DICOM image set (KEY STEP)
- Evaluation and modification
- Explore IHE process for manufacturer-driven roll-out
- Explore potential for moving further up the data generation stream, i.e., closer to raw data
Questions:
- Do we need to have a neutral broker (e.g. NEMA/MITA)?
