A method for optimizing a CT simulation protocol for different size patients for contouring and segmentation of organs and tumors. The method scanning different size phantoms, cadavers, or patients with a CT scanning x-ray tube to create a set of images and to create data sets for each different size phantoms, cadavers, or patients and then calculating an image quality index (IQI) as a benchmark for contouring accuracy. Finding an optimal IQI that characterizes patients of different sizes and using the optimal IQI to determine the accuracy of the contouring and segmentation of A CT simulation protocol for a patient. |
