Elekta CAT Scanning Protocols

Catphan® QA includes all Catphan® tests from the ELEKTA CAT guidelines. Automatic module identification is performed when a full phantom upload (or a set including the CTP404 module) is provided.

For partial phantom uploads (which do NOT include the CTP404), DICOM fields must be set as suggested in the ELEKTA CAT guidelines to provide automatic module identification.

• The system has only been tested on data with 120kV, 40mA, 40ms as suggested in the ELEKTA CAT guidelines.
• For robust results, please use a reconstructed FOV that just covers the phantom, 200-300mm
