Children
Overview
This folder contains 20 organ specific pediatric proto-
cols with 2 to 5 age or weight dependant subgroups.
For your convenience, the protocols are numbered
according to the body regions, i. e. from head to extre-
mities.
The scan protocols for Head and Neck regions are
defined according to age, and the scan protocols for
the other body regions are defined according to body
weight.
As a default, the effective mAs is set to the lowest
category, e. g. less than 6 months in head modes, and
the suggested effective mAs values for the other cate-
gories are written in additional lines in the chronicle.
For a few protocols, 80 kV was used instead of 120 kV,
either to exploit the significantly higher image contrast
of iodine contrast media at 80 kV or to reach a lower
dose level than possible with 120 kV.
