Dose Information
After the topogram has been scanned, the (eff.) mAs
value in the Routine tab card displays the mean (eff.)
mAs estimated by CARE Dose 4D based on the topo-
gram*. After the scan has been performed this value is
updated to the mean (eff.) mAs that was applied. The
values may differ slightly due to the online modulation
according to the patient’s angular attenuation profile.
*When tuning the CARE Dose 4D parameter setting to
the individual preference for image quality, we rec-
ommend keeping track of this value and comparing
it with the values used without CARE Dose 4D.
