Comments
Surely. We have been able to add the CCA scan sequence about 10 minutes - to the end of the full study that separates the early and delayed scans by about 35 minutes - a little less than the required 50 minutes but sufficient to yield consistent data. All the cases in this study were done with this technique. That way patient is not off and on the table and we only spend 10 extra minutes on the scanner.
