Table A2.

The short arc acquisition time intervals of different arc sizes in seconds.

Patient No. 1 2a 3 4
Single projectionb 0.2 0.2 0.2 0.2

a

Gantry rotation speed was 1.5 deg/s for scan 1 and 0.75 deg/s for scan 2 of patient 2. The short arc time intervals for scan 1 are therefore shorter than that for scan 2.

b

Projection acquisition rate was ~5 Hz.
