MR ADNI GO/ ADNI 2 Research Protocol
Scan Notes
- We no longer have to run the phantom Post-scan on these patients. The study people will periodically request a phantom to be run. Joe will have the information if the phantom is needed.
- Mr 3 Only – Use The “Adni Go-Adni 2 Human 7 Protocol”
- Check The Order To See If This Is A “Read”
Study Subject Scan:
- Place a fiducial on the patient's right temple.
- Position the patient as straight as possible in the 8-Ch Head Coil.
- There are several pages of paperwork that you must fill out as the scan is running.
- The scan time for the patient is approximately 45 minutes.
- The patient can go after the scan is complete.
- Place the paperwork on the inpatient white board when completed.
- Send all images to PACS and DVD, but send the fMRI sequences separately to reduce the "clogging" effect on PACS.
