Direct i4D Spiral Scanning and Respiratory Gating
Systems: SOMATOM go.Open Pro, SOMATOM X.cite, SOMATOM X.ceed
Through the use of didactic training, attendees will be able to increase their knowledge about Direct i4D and respiratory gating.
Gating overview, gating equipment, scanner configuration, protocol building, image acquisition, postprocessing, workflow, and quality control will be taught. Additionally, a basic understanding and review of system/software capability will be covered. This is a two (2) hour virtual class. By the end of this course, you will be able to:
- Describe what 4D scanning is
- Recognize the difference between Direct i4D and spiral scanning
- Configure scanner for gating
- Build gating protocols
- Aquire a 4D scan using Direct i4D and/or spiral scan
- Edit syncs
- go pro
- RT
- respiratory gating
- therapy planning
