Erler Zimmer hand phantom for CT, X-ray and radiotherapy in detail
The phantom offers you an extremely realistic simulation of a hand. You have the option of inserting various pathologies such as fractures, calcifications, bone and soft tissue tumours if you wish. This phantom is made from real patient data and manufactured using the latest technology. Bones, vessels and soft tissue are authentically represented and have realistic CT values for all tissues at a tube voltage of 120 kVp in CT. If you wish to use the phantom primarily at other tube voltages, such as 100 kVp, the calibration of the CT values can be adjusted accordingly. The phantom provides realistic tissue contrasts in X-ray imaging. Air spaces are filled with a material that has approximately -80 Hounsfield units. The hand phantom offers you an extremely realistic simulation of a hand and allows you to insert various pathologies such as fractures, calcifications, bone and soft tissue tumours if desired. The size of the phantom is 6x11x20cm.
