CT is us- Multidetector CT Protocols

Multidetector CT:
Liver:

Suspected hemangioma

Specific Anatomic Region Liver

Application Suspected hemangioma

Author Fishman EK

Reference Source Personal Communication

Scanner Used Siemens Plus4 Volume Zoom

KV / mAs / Time per Rotation (sec) TBA

Detector Collimation (mm) 4x 2.5

Slice Thickness (mm) 3

Data Reconstruction Interval (mm) 0

Table Speed (mm per rotation) / Pitch TBA

Oral Contrast N/A

IV Contrast Volume and Type 120 cc of Omnipaque 350

Injection Rate 3 cc / sec

Scan Delay (sec) 30 sec

3D Technique Used N/A

Comments:

This is a non-spiral protocol. This makes it very unique in this 3D CT protocol guide. Images are sequential over a single zone. A non-contrast study is used to detect/localize the lesion.

Repeat scans at 15 second intervals are done for 3-5 minutes depending upon the case.
