Neotoma alpha. Care dose 4D and care cavey. Care dose 4D. Care dose 4D automatically adapts the tube current to the patient's body size and shape. Using the patient, stop a gram care dose for D evaluates 2 profiles of the patient's body size in the anterior, posterior, and lateral directions related to the X ray attenuation of the patient's body. Based on these profiles, the mass value is adapted to the patient during the subsequent CT scans. Care KV Care KV is specifically developed for photon counting technology. In combination with care dose for D both dose relevant parameters, tube current and X ray tube voltage are tailored to the individual patient, the system capabilities, and the clinical task. Care Kev takes the dose efficiency of monoenergetic plus reconstructions into account. It automatically adjusts the appropriate cavey and effective mass settings to optimize the applied dose while maintaining image quality. That is, the contrast to noise ratio at predefined key levels. By ensuring consistent contrast to noise ratio levels for all scan modes, care CAVEY offers a complete solution for photon counting scanners. The adjustments are based on the following criteria. Patient attenuation calculated based on the top a gram. Examination type defined by the Karky optimized for parameter. Requested image quality defined by the care KV IQ level parameter. QQ is represented by the care dose for D and care cave parameter, and it is turned on if this parameter is set to full or manual KV. You can enable care dose 4D for each tomogram range if care dose 4D is available for the CT scan mode of that range. Care dose 4D is represented by the care dose, 4D and care cave parameter and it is enabled if this parameter is set to either full or manual. This concept is equivalent to the functionality available in SOMARI 7, where care KV could be set to on, off and semi in combination with care dose for D. Care cavey IQ level is a parameter that defines the image quality of the skin independently from the scanner. Geometric differences. The same numerical value of KRKV IQ level will deliver comparable dose and image quality for all scanner models based on the summaries 10 platform. This feature was introduced in the VA 40 software version. It makes a more consistent transfer of scan protocol parameters between scanners of different models, provided they run on the Samaris 10 platform with the version V A 40 or above. As with quality ref. Mass in Somari 7 the care Kev. IQ level for care dose 4D is defined for a patient weighing 70 to 80 kilograms. This is true even for child protocols. The care cave IQ level is still proportional to the quality ref misbehavior. This means if the user was to double the IQ level, this would double the dose applied during the scan. Based on this value, the system adapts the effective mass to the size and shape of the current patient to achieve the desired image quality. If the care dose 4D and care cave mode is off, changing the effective mass value also affects the carc VIQ level value. This may lead to an impaired image quality or an increased dose when turning the care dose for D and care Kev parameter back to manual KV or full. Make sure the carc V IQ level is set to an appropriate value. In the administration portal you can configure the dose modulation strength for a patient depending on the patient size and organ characteristics. If care KV is turned on the care Kev optimized for parameter is available which allows you to select the examination type auto. The CT system selects the appropriate examination type based on the structure of the scan protocol. Noncontrast for noncontrast examinations. Bone slash calcium for bone examinations. Soft tissue with contrast for contrast examinations. Vascular for vascular examinations. Care dose 4D and care cave. Uses predefined reference cave values as basis for the calculation of tube current and tube voltage. Depending on care, cave optimized for the reference. Cave values are 70KV for non contrast 65 KV for bone slash calcium, 60 Kev for soft tissue with contrast, 55 KV for vascular. These reference cave levels determined the default monoenergetic images to be reconstructed. In addition, the effective mass parameter is optimized to ensure adequate contrast to noise ratio and iodine deficiency in the exam for precisely those monoenergetic Kev levels. This technology is similar to the dose saving optimized for concept in summary 7. However, with Someries 10, only discrete levels are selectable. In the full mode you can specify the IQ level value for the desired image quality. Care dose and care. KV will then select the appropriate KV setting and effective mass for the desired results. In manual KV mode, the user can specify a specific value, then the scanner will adapt just the effective mass to maintain the desired image quality settings. In both modes, the effective mass value represents the chosen mass from the care dose for D and care, Kev optimizations that will be used during the scan. The quality reference value can now only be seen in the exam designer. This value will continue to function by adapting on the conditions of the selected cavey, setting the desired IQ level input, and the care Kev optimized for setting. The quality reference mass cannot be changed on its own and is for reference only. Changing one of the before mentioned factors, the user can see what effects it will have on the quality reference mass.
