Abstract

Systems and methods for a reduced interaction CT scanning workflow. A sensor is used to capture an image of a patient on the table. Scan parameters are automatically set. A full CT scan is performed without a scout scan. During the full CT scan, the scan parameters are adjusted based on the raw CT measurements from the full CT scan. A radiology report is automatically generated from the results of the full CT scan.
