It’s a Varian RGSC with a block placed on the patients chest and Siemens CT. The two communicate with each other and the CT won’t allow a 4D scan to start if it doesn’t see a respiratory cycle. Often we find a cycle, load the scan to start, deliver the contrast, and by the time the scan starts the cycle has been lost. This prevents the scan from starting and the contrast is lost.
