* CARE Bolus may be used to optimize the bolus timing.
Set the ROI for monitoring scan in the abdominal
aorta at the beginning of the scan range with trigger-
ing threshold of 120 HU, or use manual triggering.
If Topo length 1024 mm is not long enough, you can
also choose the 1540 mm long Topogram.
Position the patient as feet first. Bend the feet together
if necessary.
The data acquired can also be used for image recon-
struction of soft tissue, done by the first reconstruction.
If the Pelvis region is included in the scan range, we
recommend at least 120 kV.
MIPthin: AngioRunOff coronal
Image thickness 3

For the 2ndreconstruction the Autoload into the
MIPthin Range on the 3D Card is activated. The images
will be automatically loaded into 3D, MIPthin, and
coronal MIPthin Range will pop up.
Please notice, if you are not satisfied with the Range
preset adapt the parameters to your needs and link them
to the series.
