It is mandatory to position the patient in the center of the scan FoV. • When soft tissue is of interest, use kernel U30u for image reconstruction. • In order to optimize image quality versus radiation dose, scans are provided within a maximum scan field of 300 mm with respect to the iso-center. No recon job with a field of view exceeding those limits will be possible. Therefore, patient positioning has to be performed accurately to ensure a centered location of the skull. • To work without CARE Dose 4D use for children < 3 years 40 mAs 3-6 years 60 mAs. 562
