Comparison results of image analysis software for quality control of SPECT equipment / 中国辐射卫生

ABSTRACT

@#<b>Objective</b> To investigate the differences in output results between difference analysis software, and to provide a reference for the improvement of quality control and the standard revision of SPECT equipment. <b>Methods</b> The image analysis software for quality control held by 14 radiological health technical service institutions was selected as the research subjects using the cluster sampling method. The results of the comparison were analyzed and evaluated according to the Z-score method with certified reference values. <b>Results</b> In the comparison items of “intrinsic uniformity” and “intrinsic spatial linearity”, the number of software with suspicious, deviated and incorrect results accounted for a relatively high proportion, while the results of other comparison items were satisfactory. <b>Conclusion</b> The applicability of SPECT image analysis software lacks effective supervision measures. Relevant departments should introduce feasible measures to standardize the software production and update process, accelerate the construction of radiological health information reporting platform, and promote the healthy development of the radiation health testing industry.
