Description
Adult Knee (Bones Only) for X-Ray CT, US, MRI
Product Description
The Adult Knee (Bones Only) phantom is designed based on the average anatomy of an adult human male knee. It is a multi-modality tool compatible with X-Ray/CT, Ultrasound, and MRI imaging. The phantom features synthetic bones cast from patented epoxy-based bone material and realistic urethane-based tissue-mimicking material for the surrounding soft tissue. This simplified version focuses on the skeletal structure, making it an efficient tool for radiology training, medical imaging research, and orthopedic testing.
For MRI, the tissues provide realistic T2 relaxation time values (50 ms). The synthetic bones accurately replicate the properties of cortical and trabecular bone, supporting high-fidelity imaging and calibration across different modalities.
Note: By default, the phantom comes in a translucent amber appearance. A skin finish can be included upon request. This specific model (KE-A03) is the "Bones Only" version and does not include ligaments or tendons.
