Instructions And Patient Preparation<\/h3>\n
\n
Instructions<\/dt>\n
Position the head in the head coil and immobilize with cushions
Give cushions under the legs for extra comfort
Connect the anterior portion of the head coil and secure it in place.
Sedation vs bundle and feed is the ordering provider’s decision<\/dd>\n
Common Indications<\/dt>\n
Demyelination Disease
Multiple Sclerosis<\/dd>\n
Position<\/dt>\n
Head First
Supine<\/dd>\n
Coil<\/dt>\n
Head Coil 20ch<\/dd>\n
Landmark<\/dt>\n
Center over the glabella<\/dd>\n
Patient Population<\/dt>\n
These protocols are intended for smaller patients and serve as starting points. If a smaller FOV is needed, the parameters are modified accordingly.<\/dd>\n<\/dl>\n<\/section>\n
