1. PATIENT CARE

2. PATIENT CARE IN WHOLE BODY LOW
DOSE CT SCAN
• Short examination time and faster image acquisition
• Patient are more comfortable because it require less
patient movement.
“In myeloma, whole body CT acquisition allows the entire skeleton to
be explored while the patient lies for a few minutes on a mattress,
which is indisputably more comfortable for him or her than having
several incidences taken on a standard radiology table”
(R. Duvauferrier et al,2013)

during a CT procedure.
• Correct diagnosis result in sense of
urgency.
