Each chapter features a comprehensive list of protocols for specific clinical indications. The protocols are presented in an easily readable outline format that includes clinical indication; scanner settings; oral contrast agents; phase of respiration; slice thickness; pitch; helical exposure time; reconstruction interval; superior and inferior extent; intravenous contrast; and pertinent comments and "pearls." Representative helical CT scans appear on interfacing pages with the protocols.
