Radiography test phantom SE-A01

for CT scanfor MRIspine

Adult Spine Phantom consists of 25 individual vertebrae assembled on top of each other and encased in a semi-cylindrical-shaped body-mimicking tissue. The vertebrae have a realistic three-layered structure with inner porosity which can be adjusted according to the requirement of the particular project. The Phantom is designed based on average human anatomy, and the bones are made out of realistic patented bone material that is suitable for MRI and X-Ray CT applications. It can be used for medical imaging research and treatment planning of various medical procedures. (Upon request, it can be modified for a lumbar or spine lumbar practice phantom with soft tissue-mimicking material surrounding it) The phantom can be further customized with water fillable spinal canal inside the vertebrae or with a prefilled spinal canal for medical imaging or research applications. In terms of MRI applications, the phantom tissues have realistic T2 relaxation time values which makes this product to be best fit for any T2-weighted MRI imaging methods. Very good results can be also achieved with Proton Density imaging methods. The phantom can be still imaged with T1-weighted methods but the T1 values are less realistic and they are within the range of about 100 ms. Anatomy: • Cervical Vertebrae (C1 – C7) • Thoracic Vertebrae (T1 – T12) • Lumbar Vertebrae (L1 – L5)
