CT Scan Protocol
General Information About CT Scan
This document describes the guidelines for a CT scan taken for the purpose of ordering a Patient-Specific Implant from INCREDIBLE AM Pvt Ltd. Note:- Patient-Specific Implants are intended for the replacement of bony voids in the cranial/craniofacial skeleton.
Scanning Instructions
| Ensure scanner is DICOM Compliant. | Scan with the same slice spacing; the slice spacing must be less than or equal to the slice thickness. The slice thickness should be between 0.625mm and 1.25mm |
| Scan must be less than four months old | Reconstruct the image with a 512 x 512 matrix |
| Data must be on CD,USB & we transfer Films will not be accepted | Only the axial images are required |
| Scan all slices of the study in the same direction | All slices must have the same field of view. The same reconstruction centre, and the same table height |
| Align the patient in a way that prevents as many artifacts as possible in the resulting images. It is advised not to use a gantry tilt because Data maybe of inferior quality | Send the images (DICOM) Slice to surgeon |
Use the following scan parameters or the closest approximation possible
| Matrix | 512 X 512 |
| Slice Thickness | 1.0 mm |
| Feed per Rotation | 1.0 mm |
| Reconstructed slice Increment | 1.0 mm |
| Reconstructed Algorithm Bone or High Resolution | Bone or High Resolution |
| Gantry Tilt | 0 |
| Accepted Media | CD or USB |
INCREDIBLE AM accepts only uncompressed DICOM data. Note of CD: Scanner type, Date of Scan, Patient name and number, Surgeon, Hospital, Contact Number
