Rat Phantom (cylindrical version) is a well-suited tool specifically designed for R&D applications. The precise cylindrical shape, good stability over a long period of time, and high durability of the phantom allow for testing and calibration-related work of various medical imaging devices.
The cylindrical version has a 27 mm diameter and 70 mm height, which correspond to the dimensions of small animals (i.e. a laboratory mouse.)
The small phantom is Ultrasound and CT-compatible, and it can be customized in size and shape. The internal features can also be modified in terms of shape and properties to fit the needs of any particular bio-medical research project
Anatomy and Features:
Soft Body Tissue – for better imaging results and optical transparency, the phantom tissue is translucent and has no ultrasonic speckles.
Organs/Objects without Ultrasonic Speckles – those are organs with low ultrasound echogenicity. They appear dark on ultrasonic images.
Organs/Objects with Ultrasonic Speckles – those are the organs with higher stiffness and echogenicity than the surrounding body tissue (i.e. muscles).
Cartilage Tissue – very stiff and significantly more attenuative tissue than the organs and body tissue.
Soft Organs with Speckles – those are soft organs with a high level of ultrasonic speckles and low ultrasonic attenuation (i.e. kidneys, liver, etc.).
Phantom:
Size: 1 x 1 x 3 Inches, Weight: 1 Lb (approx.).
Shipment:
Size: 10 x 8 x 6 Inches, Weight: 3 Lbs (approx.)
