<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt">I have been performing a test for years on CT where I measure a known object across the phantom with the on device distance tool and compare it to the real size of the object. For the ACR phantom, the included
100 mm point objects in section 3 (uniformity) seems optimum for this test. It is testing if the device’s display measuring tool is properly calibrated (footnote: never had a failure!).</span><o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt">Yes, technically this is a software feature and is not purely display-dependent so maybe this is not what they are considering. But considering display geometric accuracy as described by Bob is as he says
dependent on aspect ratio and is not a factor in modern flat panel displays (it was a concern in CRTs due to EMF interference), this is my best guess at what JC wants.</span><o:p></o:p></p>
