| Sectional Phantom Hands |
The ability to perform unlimited x-rays on a Sectional Phantom enables the user to learn how different imaging variables will affect the final image.
These phantoms are constructed with a natural human skeleton cast inside a proprietary urethane material that has the same effective atomic number as the body's soft tissue. As a result, the phantom material is radiologically equivalent to the soft tissue. The material is virtually indestructible, capable of withstanding substantial impact and continuous handling without damage. The joints in each Sectional Phantom have a fixed degree of natural flexion.
Skeletons - All of our anthropomorphic phantoms use natural human skeletons, skillfully reconstructed and adjusted to overcome any natural lack of symmetry, distorted joints, etc. and fit within the mold.
Sectional Phantom Sets:
SK150 Head - The skull and cervical vertebrae are cast into the head phantom with an internal air cavity to represent the oral, pharynx and trachea anatomy.
SK100 Skull Phantom - The skull only is cast into the head phantom with an internal air cavity to represent the oral, pharynx and trachea anatomy.
SK200 Thorax - The Thorax Phantom contains the chest and shoulder skeletal structures including the upper third of the humerus. The lungs' lower density is duplicated with the special atomically correct material used in our RANDO® Phantom lungs, which has an atomic number and specific gravity of human lungs at a median respiratory state. This material is formed to the contours of the rib cage.
SK250 Lower Torso - The lumbar vertebrae, pelvis and upper third of the femur is cast into our Lower Torso Phantom. A hollow cavity reproduces the interior of the sigmoid flexure with diverticulum and rectum. This cavity is connected to the surface by a duct which is sealed with an o-ring screw cap. The cavity may be filled with contrast media. It is not discernible when filled with water.
XA235R and XA235L Elbows - The Elbow Phantoms contain the lower third of the humerus and upper third of the radius and ulna. The right elbow has a 90-degree flexion and the left elbow is extended.
XA231R and XA231L Hands - The Hand Phantoms contain the lower third of the radius and ulna along with the carpal and finger bones. The left hand is pronated and the right hand is relaxed.
XA245R and XA245L Knees - The Knee Phantoms contain the lower third of the femur and the upper third of the fibula and tibia bones. The right knee is in 90° flexion and the left is extended.
XA241R and XA241L Feet - The Feet Phantoms contain the lower third of the tibia and fibula along with all the bones of the feet. The left foot is relaxed and the right foot is in plantar flexion.
