Summary

The QIBA CT-1C phantom collection was designed and shared to assist in Characterizing Variability, sans Biology. This data set was contributed by RSNA's Quantitative Imaging Biomarker Alliance activity, Volumetric CT Group 1C. Multiple image sets of the same phantoms were re-scanned across centers to isolate contributors to variability. The goal was to determine necessary control conditions to be documented in QIBA profiles, ensuring that the output for imaging when performed under these conditions will be adequately precise and accurate when scanned on profile-compliant equipment.Much more information about this data set can be found on the QIBA CT-1C wiki page at http://qibawiki.rsna.org/index.php?title=VolCT_-_Group_1C.
