Adult Thorax for X-Ray CT and US

For radiography and sonography programmes that need a single thorax model usable across multiple imaging modalities, built by Erler-Zimmer with realistic internal anatomy for consistent scanning practice.

This phantom is based on an average human anatomy and its skeleton is individually cast from a realistic patented bone material that is suitable for X-Ray/CT and Ultrasound applications. It can be used for medical imaging research and radiology training and can also be served as a customized tool for equipment testing and calibration.

The vertebrae have a realistic three-layered structure with inner porosity, which can be adjusted according to the requirement of the particular project. The lungs installed inside this torso can be customized in several ways to simulate any pathology, such as mucus, lesions, and typical infections. Upon request, this phantom can also be customized in size and shape (i.e. based on the individual’s CT scan).

Anatomy:

• Spine with Porous Inner Structure
• Complete Ribcage
• Shoulders and Clavicles
• Trachea
• Heart
• Lungs with Prefilled Major Vessels
