Hints

• Use this protocol for children below 6 months of age.

• When bone structure is of interest, use kernel C60s

for image reconstruction.

• In order to optimize image quality versus radiation

dose, scans are provided within a maximum scan
field of 300 mm with respect to the iso-center. No
recon job with a field of view exceeding those limits
will be possible. Therefore, patient positioning has to
be performed accurately to ensure a centered loca-
tion of the skull.
