Kernels

Head, “B“ stands for Body, “U“ stands for High Reso-
lution, “C“ stands for ChildHead, and “S“ stands for
Special Application, e. g., Osteo CT.
The image sharpness is defined by the numbers –
the higher the number, the sharper the image; the
lower the number, the smoother the image.

Image Filter
There are 4 different filters available:
PFO: To reduce beam-hardening artifacts in head
images, particularly in the base of the skull, use the
Posterior Fossa Optimization (PFO) filter. It is highly
recommended to use the PFO filter for all soft tissue
reconstruction.
