Sentence examples for start of scanning from inspiring English sources

A Hoffman 3D brain phantom was filled with 20 MBq of 18F solution (FDG) at the start of scanning and scanned in a list mode or dynamic mode for 30 min together with a cylindrical phantom containing 80 MBq of 18F solution (FDG) placed on the bed 30 cm apart from the end of the phantom simulating the body activity.
