Concept of Scan Protocols
The scan protocols for adult and children are defined
according to body regions – Head, Neck, Shoulder,
Thorax, Abdomen, Pelvis, Spine, Upper Extremities,
Lower Extremities, Vascular, Specials, Private and
optional Cardiac, and PET.
The protocols for special applications are defined in
the Application Guide “Clinical Applications 1” and
“Clinical Applications 2“ – or in case of Heart View
examinations, in the Application Guide “Heart View“.
The general concept is as follows: All protocols with-
out suffix are standard spiral modes. E.g. “Shoulder”
means the spiral mode for the shoulder.
The suffixes of the protocol name are follows:
“Routine“: for routine studies
“Seq”: for sequence studies
“Fast“: use a higher pitch for fast acquisition
“ThinSlice“: use a thinner slice collimation
for thin slice Multi-Planar-Reconstruction – or
Maximum-Intensity-Projection studies
“Combi“: use a thinner slice width for Multi-Planar-
Reconstruction – or Maximum-Intensity-Projection
studies and thicker slice width for soft tissues studies
“042”: use the rotation time of 0.42 seconds
“037”: use the rotation time of 0.37 seconds
“UHR“: use a thinner slice width for Ultra High
Resolution studies and a FoV of 250 mm*
“ECG“: ECG gated or trigged mode
“100kV”: use the Tube Voltage 100*
“Vol”: use the 3D-Recon Workflow*
The availability of scan protocols depends on the
system configuration.
