ADULT TORSO (DYNAMIC) FOR X-RAY CT, MRI

Adult Human Torso (Dynamic) with a beating heart and breathable lungs is a lifelike, anatomically realistic, from neck to pelvic area phantom/simulator with all the essential organs present inside. This phantom is compatible with MRI and X-Ray/CT, and it is an ideal tool for applications such as angiography. The organs are made from realistic urethane-based tissue-mimicking materials, and the bones are made from a patented ceramic-reinforced epoxy-based composite material. The skeleton is assembled from individually cast bones with vertebrae that have a realistic three-layered structure and inner porosity. This phantom can be used with Barium-sulfate, Iodine-based, Gadolinium-based, Microbubble, and Iron Oxide-based contrast mediums.

In terms of MRI applications, the phantom tissues have realistic T2 relaxation time values, which makes this product to be the best fit for any T2-weighted MRI imaging methods. Very good results can also be achieved with proton-density imaging methods. The phantom can still be imaged with T1-weighted methods, but the T1 values are less realistic, and they are within the range of about 100 ms.

The design of this phantom includes a realistic heart with all major heart vessels and internal heart chambers. The TPS heart pump is included with this phantom, and it enables the realistic heartbeat and motion of heart walls. The TPS lung pump is also included to provide lifelike breathing motion in the torso.
