Description
Newborn Head (Dynamic) for X-Ray CT, US, MRI
Product Description
The Newborn Head (Dynamic) phantom is meticulously designed for medical imaging of blood flow underneath the skull. Based on average newborn anatomy, it uses realistic soft and hard tissue-mimicking materials suitable for Ultrasound, MRI, and X-Ray/CT applications. This model is an excellent tool for angiography training and research.
For MRI, the tissues feature realistic T2 relaxation time values, optimized for T2-weighted and proton-density imaging methods. While T1-weighted imaging is possible, values fall within the less realistic range of approximately 100 ms. The phantom is compatible with multiple contrast mediums, including Barium-sulfate, Iodine, Gadolinium, Microbubble, and Iron Oxide-based products.
Note: By default, the phantom comes in a translucent amber appearance. A skin feature can be included upon request. Customization is available to fit specific biomedical application needs.
