Repeating scans
A.2
Measurement related or system related artifacts cannot always
be excluded. Therefore the scan should be repeated if a tomo-
graphic structure appears questionable. This should be done
after slightly shifting the patient’s position within the slice, e.g.,
by changing vertical position of the table by more than 5 mm.
The result can be used to exclude system-dependent long-term
or temporary equipment faults as the artifact cause.
A.2
Persisting object related artifacts can be considered measure-
ment-related with a high probability. They should be recogniza-
ble as such by an experienced radiologist.
