If the user attempts to load a scan range that would result in a dose that exceeds the configured Dose Notification thresholds, a pop up will notify the user. It is still possible to Load the examination. The dialogue box includes an optional field for the user to document a diagnostic reason for the requested exposure (e.g. obese patient). Dose Notification X Arterial Phase: DLP (38.8 mGy"cm) exceeds the notification value (12.0 mGy*cm). Venous Phase: CTDIvol (17.79 mGy) exceeds the notification value (10.00 mGy). Venous Phase: DLP (420.6 mGy*cm) exceeds the notification value (12.0 mGy*cm). Diagnostic reason Load Cancel 2. If Dose Notification values have been configured but the Dose Notification pop up has been disabled in Optionsà Configurationà Examination, the system will display the proposed CTDIvol and DLP in red if they exceed the configured values. 01_AbdMultiPhase (Adult) 10.10.19-15:18:21-DST-Specials PolyTraum 10.10.19-15:18:21-DST-" Total mAs: 184 3D Topogram Eff. mAs CARE DOS04D Non Contrast RT KV 140 CTDIvol (32cm): 19.43 mGy DLP. 459.3 mGy cm Pause Scan time 5.62 5 configured ref value: 10.00 mGy Simulation Deley 25 PreMonitoring 5.0 mm Acq. 128 x 0.8 mm Contrast Monitoring No. of images 45 rterial Phase U Comments Venous Phase Range: Begin End Table: Position Height -863 0 -1084 5 -12880 1250 Craniocaudal Load RACON Recon Routine Scan Recon Auto Tasking No checkup performed so far Select Schup/Check 19-Oct-2010 15:19:32 Siemens Healthineers Services Page 4 of 6 Configuration and Use of CT Dose Notification Effective Date: 02/05/2018| Quality HOOD05162002763640 3.
