Abstract
An imaging system () includes an X-ray radiation source () configured to emit radiation that traverses an examination region, a detector array () configured to detect radiation that traverses an examination region and generate a signal indicative thereof, wherein the detected radiation is for a 3-D pre-scan, and a reconstructor () configured to reconstruct the signal to generate a 2-D pre-scan projection image. The imaging system further includes a console () wherein a processor thereof is configured to execute 3-D volume planning instructions () in memory to display the 2-D pre-scan projection image () and a scan plan or bounding box () for planning a 3-D volume scan of a region/tissue of interest based on a selected protocol for a 3-D volume scan of a region/tissue of interest being planned and receive an input confirming or adjusting the scan plan box to create a 3-D volume scan plan for the 3-D volume scan of the region/tissue of interest.
