Table 1 Scoring chart for image quality scoring criteria (IQSC)

From: Development and validation of image quality scoring criteria (IQSC) for pediatric CT: a preliminary study

0s = Desired features not seen

0i = Anatomy not included in the images

1 = Unacceptable quality (images do not allow diagnostic interpretation)

2 = Limited quality (images are adequate only for limited clinical interpretation due to high noise*)

3 = Adequate quality (images are just adequate for diagnostic interpretation)

4 = Higher than needed quality (images are much better than needed for interpretation: images with little or no noise)

  1. *Noise is described as salt and pepper appearance of the image
