Claim Text:
1. A system to automatically assess a confidence in an dynamic functional imaging acquisition data based on a proposed diagnostic task or treatment decision, the system comprising a computer readable non-transitory medium configured to receive dynamic functional imaging data, the computer readable non-transitory medium comprising logic to: determine one or more imaging quality indicators relating to the acquisition of the acquired imaging data based on one or more quantitative imaging quality factors corresponding to a confidence of the proposed diagnostic task or treatment decision, wherein the one or more quantitative imaging quality factors each comprise a quantitative assessment of at least one of the accuracy, location, and timing of the acquisition, and wherein the one or more imaging quality indicators are generated by applying the one or more quantitative imaging quality factors to the acquired imaging data; and compare the one or more imaging quality indicators to one or more confidence benchmark values associated with the one or more quantitative imaging quality factors and determine a confidence value indicative of the confidence that the acquisition of the imaging data is of sufficient quality for purposes of performing the proposed diagnostic task or making the proposed treatment decision.
