Improve accessibility of Modulation Transfer Function (MTF) metrics for implementing routine quality control (QC) of fluoroscopes.

To share our experience with the acceptance testing of nine myQA Daily devices (IBA) and to evaluate the relevance of these tests despite the system being widely used clinically in other hospitals.

To establish standardized, probe-specific depth of penetration baselines for protocol-specific clinical use across ultrasound transducers to support routine quality assurance (QA), enable early detection of probe degradation, and...

To reduce the frequency of calibration and adjustment of Elekta linear accelerator components, including MLCs, jaws, mechanical isocenter, beam spot position, symmetry, and flatness.

Artificial intelligence (AI) is increasingly integrated into clinical magnetic resonance imaging workflows, creating new opportunities and responsibilities for medical physicists. This program is designed to prepare medical physi...

Deep learning-based image reconstruction has shown substantial promise for addressing the highly non-uniform and under-sampled projections encountered in nonstop gated CBCT (ngCBCT). However, due to the statistical nature of data...

To develop an automated CT quality control (QC) query system that retrieves, analyzes, and trends QC data and enables image artifact review across iPhone, iPad, and Computer platforms for 71 GE and Siemens CT scanners spanning nu...

To create a simple web application for collecting quality control data from computed tomography systems that provides basic analytics and manages physicist approvals.

To create a large, quality-controlled abdominal CT atlas that enables radiotherapy auto-contouring research by providing standardized, voxel-wise annotations across diverse institutions and by supporting uncertainty-aware expert...

While image translation models like CycleGANs are increasingly used in medical imaging tasks, evaluating their training behavior remains challenging. Current practices often rely on batch-wise loss curves or selected visual outpu...

To report a rare failure of a sealed source Cesium-137 E-Vial used for dose calibrator quality control, describe the methods used for detection and characterization of the leak and emphasize implications for radiation safety, sou...

Conventional approaches to PET spatial resolution assessment, such as the American College of Radiology (ACR) guideline and the NEMA NU 2-2018 protocol, offer limited insight into the effective spatial resolution achieved under c...

Cone-beam CT (CBCT) has rapidly expanded across diverse clinical applications, yet fleet-wide benchmarking of imaging performance remains challenging due to wide variation in acquisition hardware, reconstruction pipelines, and ve...

Nuclear medicine is undergoing a paradigm shift to produce images in units of activity concentration, analogous to PET imaging. Quantitative SPECT imaging requires system calibrations. In 2024, we formally incorporated routine qu...

Visual assessment of ultrasound uniformity is subjective and prone to inter-observer variability. This study validates a novel, automated metric combining weighted intensity statistics and texture analysis to provide an objective...

Dual Energy Computed Tomography (DECT) is readily available in some clinical settings, enabling image visualization at multiple energy levels to extract material-dependent attenuation differences. This ability enables improved ti...

General-purpose large language models (LLMs) often exhibit limitations in specialized fields like radiotherapy, including insufficient expertise, outdated knowledge, and a tendency to generate hallucinations. To address these iss...

To explore the feasibility of applying large language models (LLMs) for radiotherapy plan(RTP) evaluation to assist radiotherapy plan quality control and clinical decision making.

The X-ray Heel Effect influences automatic exposure control (AEC) termination at different AEC cell locations. This study evaluates the Heel Effect’s influence on AEC cell balance testing methodologies in digital radiography.

To assess the feasibility of using radiomics features from dynamic FET imaging parameterizations as potential biomarkers of glioblastoma (GBM) treatment response by evaluating the repeatability of parametric-map radiomic features...

In order to initiate a quality control (QC) process for clinical photon-counting computed tomography (PCCT), this work evaluates the applicability of AAPM Task Group Report 299 (TG299) for multi-energy CT (MECT) systems to PCCT,...

Large multi-institution healthcare networks often operate diverse fleets of CT scanners while sharing the same radiology practice for clinical interpretation. Variability in CT protocols, quality control (QC) processes, and dose...

To provide AAPM members with a centralized, authoritative, and continuously updated web-based resource for obtaining beam quality conversion factors, kQ, and other data needed to realize absorbed dose measurements using the AAPM...

Grayscale ultrasound is widely used in breast screening, diagnosis, and ultrasound-guided biopsy, particularly for detecting breast lesions. However, current Quality Control (QC) methods provide limited and often subjective asses...
