Adult Head (Hematoma) for X-Ray CT, US, MRI
Product Description
The Adult Head (Hematoma) phantom is a specialized medical training solution designed for skill development in applications relating to head trauma and hematomas. It replicates the intricate anatomy of the human head and is fully compatible with X-Ray CT, Ultrasound, and MRI. The phantom is ideal for refining expertise in clinical scenarios involving stroke, aneurysms, and various head injuries in a risk-free environment.
For MRI, the tissues offer realistic T2 relaxation time values, making the phantom highly suitable for T2-weighted and proton-density imaging methods. It is compatible with multiple contrast mediums, including Barium-sulfate, Iodine, Gadolinium, Microbubble, and Iron Oxide-based products. The materials are stable over time and engineered for long-term use.
Note: By default, the phantom comes in a translucent amber appearance. A skin feature can be included upon request. Protective urethane coating increases body tissue hardness by approx. 30 points (e.g., from OO 60 to OO 90).
Anatomy
- Skull: Realistic three-layered bone structure.
- Cervical Spine: Realistic vertebrae included.
- Brain: Grey Matter parenchyma, Falx Cerebri, and Brain Ventricles.
- Pathology: Realistic Hematoma feature.
- External: Alignment markings and acoustically correct skin-mimicking material.
