Participants completed a screening questionnaire assessing mask\u2010related anxiety and were assessed for anxious response during CT or MRI planning scans. A subgroup completed the Claustrophobia Questionnaire (CLQ) for comparison.

Of the 410 participants (mean age 62), 27.3% presented an anxious response to the immobilization mask during planning exams.
