✧ Take special care when processing dynamic CT images
other than SOMATOM CT image data.
✧ If processing other levels of the brain, ensure that the slice
contains the occipital segment of the superior sagittal sinus
above the confluence of sinuses.
✧ Only use data that have been acquired or reconstructed
with a sampling rate of at least 1 image per second.
✧ Note that the primary anatomy that the software expects
for its semi-automatic analysis are standard slices through
the basal ganglia.
