Dose Information
– if the automatic dose increase for obese patients (or
patient sections) has to be more moderate than the
preset (choose obese: weak increase), resulting in
more image noise and a lower dose for those
images.
– if the automatic dose decrease for slim patients (or
patient sections) has to be stronger than the preset
(choose slim: strong decrease), resulting in more
image noise and a lower dose for those images.
– if the automatic dose decrease for slim patients (or
patient sections) has to be more moderate than the
preset (choose slim: weak decrease), resulting in

On the Patient tab card you can adjust the image qual-
ity (for more information see chapter How does CARE
Dose 4D work).

protocols!
