New RIQE model evaluates CT image quality, but has limitations

By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

Researchers have developed the Radiology Image Quality Evaluator (RIQE), a model designed to assess the quality of computed tomography (CT) images. RIQE is inspired by the Natural Image Quality Evaluator (NIQE) and is trained on a dataset of 3,792 full-dose CT slices from 158 patients. The model demonstrates effectiveness in ranking reduced-dose reconstructions as worse than full-dose counterparts and identifying images with increased noise. However, RIQE's preferences do not consistently align with lesion detectability, suggesting it should not be the sole criterion for selecting or tuning image processing techniques. AI

    RIQE: a NIQE-style reference model for Computed Tomography

    The Natural Image Quality Evaluator (NIQE) scores an image by its statistical distance from a model fitted on pristine images, and its distributed model is fitted on photographs. We release the Radiology Image Quality Evaluator (RIQE), a NIQE-style model fitted on 3,792 full-dose…
