On the sagittal scout image, center the FOV on C4/5.
 For each patient, the FOV should be re-sized to include the Cerebellum to include the T3 vertebral body. On the dorsal scout image, add enough slices to cover the entire vertebral body out to the transverse processes. **Be sure to use an ODD number of slices. This will ensure that the center slice is in true midline.** For each patient, the FOV should be re-sized to include the Cerebellum to include the T3 vertebral body.
