UNSCEAR concluded that increased use of CT scanning caused dramatic changes in
population dose. Therefore, international radiation protection authorities
demand: 1) periodical quality assurance tests with respect to image quality and
radiation dose, and 2) optimization of all examination protocols with respect to
image quality and radiation dose. This study aimed to evaluate and analyze
multiple image quality parameters and variability measured throughout time for
six different CT scanners from four different vendors, in order to evaluate the
current methodology for QA controls of CT systems. The results from this study
indicate that there is minor drifting in the image noise and uniformity and in
the spatial resolution over time for CT scanners, independent of vendors. The HU
for different object densities vary between different CT scanner models from
different vendors, and over time for one specific CT scanner. Future tests of
interphantom and intraphantom variations, along with inclusion of more CT
scanners, are necessary to establish robust baselines and recommendations of
methodology for QA controls of CT systems, independent of model and vendor.
