Hints

• An automatic bone correction allows for improved

head image quality, without any additional post-pro-
cessing.

• 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.
