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.
The Phantom is used for:
- 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
- Aluminium 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
