PET-CT Phantom

Description

PET-CT Phantom
    Main Applications:
  • Acceptance testing of PET/CT and SPECT/CT systems
  • Routine quality evaluation of PET/CT and SPECT/CT Systems
  • Evaluation of new image fusion software
  • Evaluation of new attenuation correction algorithms
  • Aluminum tubes are for registration
  • The outer 2" OD micro cylinder is for comparing attenuation region to non attenuation region
  • The 6" ring is for contrast solution
  • Research
    Main Features:
  • The PET-CT Phantom™ includes internal structures (three rods and six spheres) which when imaged with both modalities can demonstrate how accurately the two image sets are aligned
  • In addition, a single sample of radioactive water is attenuated by water, bone, and CT contrast material (as well as air only) to determine how accurately the CT-based PET attenuation correction works
