Here is my workflow. I use a Nikon Coolscan 8000 ED and Silverfast 8.5 Archive Suite.

1. Scan with Silverfast as a 64 bit HDRi tiff file in Silverfast Ai Studio.

2. Open up in Silverfast HDR and apply the infrared Dust and Scratch removal. I do not use any adjustments in Silverfast other than the infrared dust and scratch removal.

3. Process the file as a 48-24 bit 8 bit file and open this file up in Adobe Photoshop Elements 14.

4. Apply Colorperfect plugin and process - this plugin really makes a huge difference being apply to apply a linear gamma - original files in silverfast are
very dark and murky. After colorperfect, they are much much brighter when I adjust the black and white points to 0.00.

5. Apply finishing touches in Adobe Photoshop Elements 14.

Here is a link to a couple of my images that I scanned with this procedure:
