  • Causa
    An issue has been identified where a retrospective respiratory gated 4d ct scan is performed with the bellows pulmonary gating device, the ct images might be reconstructed at a single phase, while the annotations on the images incorrectly indicate that the reconstruction is from the requested specific phases (0% to 90%). this may lead to a couple of scenarios that may result in misrepresentation of the 4d ct images with a respiratory gated 4d ct scan and reconstruction. in the event this occurs a misrepresentation of ct images may result, due to the incorrect image pulmonary phase annotation or the need to rescan the patient due to an incorrect image pulmonary phase.
