Cardiac Digital Imaging/CineVideo QC Phantom

• Recommended as part of the Image Compression Study being conducted by the American College of Cardiology (ACC) DICOM Committee
• Selected by the ACC as the image quality criteria for digital imaging
• This device provides:
• Patient identification information at the beginning of a cine or video study
• Quality control test of resolution
• Quality control tests of density and contrast
• Quality control test of uniformity of focus

This patient-equivalent phantom provides permanent patient identification information (required by the ACC), as well as quality control checks for digital imaging (when exposed on the cine film or videotape at the beginning of the study, before the patient is placed on the table).
