Product catalog summary
Description
The Adult Head (Standard) phantom is designed to mimic an average human male head using realistic tissue materials suitable for Ultrasound, MRI, and X-Ray/CT applications. It features a polyurethane-based brain parenchyma and a three-layered skull structure. The phantom is optimized for T2-weighted MRI imaging but can also be used for T1-weighted methods with less realistic T1 values. It includes an inflatable ventricular system for simulating cerebral anatomy.

Anatomy
The phantom includes a skull, brain with grey matter, ventricles, a tumor, falx cerebri, brain vessels, and acoustically correct skin-mimicking material.

Design
The phantom is designed with multiple views for comprehensive imaging.

Filling the Ventricles
Instructions include filling the ventricles with water using a syringe, sealing, repositioning, and repeating the process until fully filled.

Special Instructions
The phantom can be scanned in various positions and directions. For ultrasound, it can be used with gel or in water. For MRI, vessels can be filled with contrast agents. Testing blood-mimicking fluids on a small area is recommended to ensure compatibility.

Technical Properties
Details include sound velocity, density, hardness, T2 values, and attenuation for different tissues. Thermal properties of bone-mimicking tissue are also provided.

Materials Used
Soft tissues are made from urethane-based resin, and synthetic bones from a ceramic-reinforced epoxy composite.

Size and Weight
The phantom measures 12 x 9 x 7 inches and weighs approximately 17 lbs. Shipment size is 23 x 14 x 10 inches, weighing 22 lbs.

Included In Order
The package includes the phantom, user manual, a 2-year warranty, and a hard carry case.

Storage and Handling
The phantom should be protected from UV light and stored in a dry, dark place when not in use.

Cleaning
The phantom is water-resistant and can be cleaned with water or soapy water. It is resistant to chemicals, but testing is recommended for stronger solvents.

TRUE PHANTOM SOLUTIONS INC. Description Adult Head (Standard) phantom is designed based on an average human male head and is made of realistic tissue mimicking materials suitable for Ultrasound, MRI, and X-Ray/CT applications. The brain parenchyma inside of the skull phantom is made of an ultra-soft polyurethane-based material that mimics soft tissue, and its anatomical shape was created based on the optical scan of an average human brain model used in the anatomy class for medical students. The materials used to build the phantom are stable over time, and they do not dry out. The skull bone...

TRUE PHANTOM SOLUTIONS INC. HD-A03 | User Manual Step-by-Step Instructions A. Begin filling slowly. - Using a syringe or a very low water flow, gently pour water into the ventricle opening until it reaches the top. B. Seal and reposition the head. - Once the ventricle appears full, insert the plug into the opening. Carefully flip the head upside down, then tilt it left and right several times. This motion helps trapped air rise toward the opening. C. Unplug and check the water level. - Remove the plug. You will notice that the water level has dropped; this is normal and indicates that air has...
