CT 120 scanners are designed to facilitate prospectively gated image acquisitions. Cardiac and respiratory signals can be gated separately or simultaneously. The purpose of this document is to describe the hardware and software configurations needed for these gating setups. Additional manual configuration steps are needed to gate both signals simultaneously, and this document will describe those as well.

This Application Note applies to versions 2.0.8.12 through 2.0.8.16 of the console software.

This Application Note describes features, methods or processes intended as a guide to facilitate studies with GE pre-clinical imaging systems. The techniques described herein may not be optimal in all cases, and users are encouraged to optimize and validate techniques specific to their application.
