syngo Calcium Scoring
Hints in General
• Kernel B35 is dedicated to calcium scoring studies,
providing the most accurate determination of the
HU-value of small calcified lesions. To ensure the
optimal image quality and correlation to known reference data, other kernels are not recommended.
• Use the ECG-triggered protocol for low-dose scanning except for patients with arrhythmia. Use the
ECG-gated protocol when accuracy and/or reproducibility are essential, e.g. for follow-up studies of calcium scoring.
