#### C.34.2.2 Protocol Planning Information

This information describes activities that are related to the effective performance of the Protocol but are not typically performed in the scanning room. This could include things like:

- Instruct patient to fast for 4 hours before imaging

- Obtain creatinine within 7 days before imaging

- Schedule scan 12-24hrs before surgery

- Premedicate patient with diphenhydramine 1 hr before imaging

- Schedule an additional liver Acquisition Protocol Element 10-15 minutes after contrast injection if the patient has a history of cholangiocarcinoma; note this example would affect both the length of the scheduled time slot and the actual performance with a delayed acquisition

- If available run the followup scan on the same device as the original scan.
