Direction 5480385-1EN, Revision 1
The Accumulated DLP displays the total exam DLP up to the current point in time. Scout dose is
not included in the DLP totals since standards for reporting scout dose are not yet defined.
Scout dose is generally a very small part of the exam.
The dose information updates when technique values such as kV, mA, scan time, slice
thickness, and scan field of view are changed.
Dose information is saved as a screen save image in Series 999 upon selecting End Exam.
Series 997 contains the DICOM Dose Structured Report.
