METHODS AND SYSTEMS FOR TIMING A SECOND CONTRAST BOLUS

摘要

Methods and systems are provided for adaptive scan control. In one embodiment, a method includes upon a first contrast injection, processing acquired projection data of a subject to measure a contrast signal of the first contrast injection, estimating a time when a venous return to baseline (VRTB) of the first contrast injection is to occur based on the contrast signal, and commanding initiation of a second contrast injection at the estimated time.
