Scan and Reconstruction
Quick Scan
The data is usually acquired during a full 360° rotation
– this is a Full scan. Data acquisition not using a full
360° rotation is called a “Quick scan”. Quick scans are
employed to reduce motion artifacts and improve the
temporal resolution.
Dynamic Multiscan
Multiple continuous rotations at the same table posi-
tion are performed for data acquisition. Normally, it is
applied for fast dynamic contrast studies, such as
syngo Neuro Perfusion CT.
Dynamic Serioscan
Dynamic serial scanning mode without table feed.
Dynamic serio can still be used for dynamic evaluation
such as Test Bolus. The image order can be defined on
the Recon subtask card.
