Small Parts Ultrasound Phantom Model 050
Quality Assurance for Small Parts Ultrasonic Imaging Detachable water wells allow for testing curvilinear and endocavity probes Ensure over ten years of reliable use through reinspection and repair services
Overview
The CIRS Small Parts Ultrasound Phantom features a compact design ideal for high-resolution imaging systems with limited depth of penetration.
Model 050 is made up of a proprietary tissue-simulating material called Zerdine® (1), which accurately simulates the ultrasound characteristics found in human liver.
A series of wire targets included in the Model 050 will appear as bright dots or lines on the ultrasound image. These targets are made from nylon with a diameter of 0.1 mm.
Our phantom also contains two known volumes, a 10 mm combination cyst-like/hyperechoic mass and anechoic focal lesions embedded within the phantom. These masses are made from Zerdine with a different contrast and attenuation relative to the background material.
