Hints

•CARE Bolus may be used to optimize the bolus tim- ing.

•Set the ROI for monitoring scan in the aortic arch with triggering threshold of 120 HU, or use manual triggering.

•High quality 2D & 3D post-processing can be achieved using a thin slice thickness and 50% over- lap in image reconstruction.

•Thick MPRs and ThinMIPs can be created very quickly on the 3D card by just clicking on the appropriate icons. The thickness of these reconstructed images can be defined by clicking on the icons with the right mouse to open the entry field.

•To display an SSD of the thoracic aorta without bone included, editing is necessary.
