Description
Rat Phantom (Anatomical) for X-Ray CT, MRI
Product Description
The Rat Phantom (Anatomical) is designed based on the average anatomy of a rat or mouse. It is a powerful tool optimized for X-Ray/CT and MRI imaging, ideal for testing and calibrating various medical imaging devices. This phantom can be customized to excel in a selected imaging modality or modified in size and shape to fit specific research needs.
For MRI applications, the phantom tissues provide realistic T2 relaxation time values, making it highly suitable for T2-weighted and proton-density imaging methods. While T1-weighted imaging is possible, the T1 values fall within the less realistic range of approximately 100 ms. The phantom features patented bone-mimicking material and realistic synthetic organ resins.
Note: By default, the phantom comes in a translucent amber appearance, but an opaque version or a skin feature can be included upon request. A protective urethane coating increases body tissue hardness by approximately 30 points (e.g., from OO 35 to OO 65).
