Hints
• You could repeat the same protocol simply by click-
ing the chronicle with the right mouse button for
repeat. E.g. when both non-contrast and contrast
studies are required.
• For lung cancer evaluation, this protocol can be com-
bined with protocol NeckRoutine.
• Low dose lung images are usually evaluated using
lung window setting. Soft tissue/bone window set-
tings may be used to visualize the presence of calci-
fications in the nodules.
• It is essential to use the same protocol for follow-up
studies to check for progression.
• CARE Dose 4D is off as default because for LungLow-
Dose protocols the lowest mAs values are used.
