- Dual attenuation design provides challenging testing environment for high sensitivity probes
- Acoustic properties comply with IEC Technical Standard 62736
- Detachable water wells allow for testing curvilinear and endocavity probes
- Only general purpose QA phantom on market with elasticity targets
- Ensure over ten years of reliable use through reinspection and repair services
Includes best in industry four-year warranty
The CIRS Model 040GSE Multi-Purpose, Multi-Tissue Ultrasound Phantom is the most complete solution available for performance and quality assurance testing. Its dual frequency design and detachable water wells allow testing of most transducer shapes – including curvilinear and endocavity – and frequencies. It is also the only QA phantom on the market that provides both elasticity targets and all the standard B-mode imaging test objects.
The phantom is made of CIRS’ proprietary Zerdine ® hydrogel polymer, which has been formulated to provide tissue mimicking properties including compatibility with harmonic imaging. To maximize phantom lifetime, this gel is contained in a rugged ABS plastic housing with a Saran-based laminate membrane.
CIRS ultrasound QA phantoms come standard with a robust housing, carry case, 48-month warranty, and user guide.
