Description
Planar Skull Bone Phantoms for X-Ray CT, US, MRI
Product Description
The Planar Skull Bone Phantoms are high-precision geometrical research tools designed for medical imaging development and calibration. This set includes three distinct bone plates, each featuring a realistic three-layered structure comprising cortical bone and an inner trabecular (diploe) layer. These phantoms are engineered to accurately replicate the physical, acoustical, and thermal properties of real human bone.
Compatible with Ultrasound, MRI, and X-Ray/CT applications, the bone material is cast from a patented ceramic-reinforced epoxy-based composite. The inner porosity of the trabecular layer can be adjusted to meet specific project requirements. For MRI, the bones exhibit realistic T2 relaxation time values, supporting high-quality T2-weighted and proton density imaging.
Note: This set consists of three flat bone plates of varying thicknesses. Full customization of dimensions, bone density, and layered structure is available upon request to suit specific research needs.
