Adult Torso (Cardiac) for X-Ray CT, MRI
Product Description
The Adult Human Torso (Cardiac) is an anatomically realistic simulator covering the area from the neck to the pelvis. Specifically optimized for X-Ray/CT and MRI, it serves as an ideal tool for cardiovascular research and angiography. The phantom includes all essential internal organs and a specialized beating heart system that closely mimics the acoustical, physical, and mechanical properties of an adult human body.
Constructed with patented synthetic bones and realistic urethane-based tissue-mimicking materials, the phantom supports various contrast mediums, including Barium-sulfate, Iodine, Gadolinium, and Iron Oxide. For MRI, the synthetic tissues exhibit realistic T2 relaxation time values (5570 ms), making it excellent for T2-weighted and proton-density imaging. The included TPS heart pump enables lifelike heartbeat and wall motion.
Note: By default, the phantom comes in a translucent amber appearance. A skin feature can be included upon request. The beating heart system requires the included heart pump for full functionality.
