In this protocol, two recon tasks are predefined for
image reconstruction of both soft issue and bone struc-
ture. If one of them is not required, you can delete it
by clicking the icon of the recon task on the chronicle
with the right mouse button and select “delete recon
task“. You should do this before you start the recon-
struction.
When performing Orbit studies, the patient should
be told to keep his/her eyes closed. This will reduce the
possibility of small streak artifacts from eye movement.
If the study is focused on bone structure only, you can
reduce the mAs to 20.
