-While not explicitly a 'safe' thing to do, it is possible to trick the scanner with very very small patients by inputting a weight of 10kg or above.+While not explicitly a 'safe' thing to do, it is possible to trick the scanner with very very small patients by inputting a weight of 10kg or above. This can be done if needed to prevent the scanner from stopping scanning because the SAR model is inaccurate for very small animals, and SAR becomes overestimated.
