It is suggested to provide scanning before treatment and right after the treatment. Reasons are:
- To confirm if the treatment strategy is in the right direction
- To provide convincing treatment efficacy to your patients
- To have a better source and proof of your effective treatment
- To avoid arguments with the patients if some unexpected situations happen
- To maintain a consistent posture during different scan for the same subject, as the posture of subject could significantly affect the measurement.
