Medical Physics : Nested CT Dose Phantom Kit

Nested CT Dose Phantom Kit for Pediatric/Adult Head and Body Introduction The innovative nested CT Dose Phantom can be used with any computed tomography (CT) system designed to image pediatric and adult head and body. Each phantom segment can provide separate dose information. When performing dose profile measurements, the dose phantoms allow the user to collect information for the maximum, minimum and mid-range value of the nominal tomographic section thickness. This essential phantom kit consists of three parts: an adult body phantom, an adult head phantom that doubles as a pediatric body phantom and the new pediatric head phantom, nested together for easy storage and convenient transport. (All are made of solid acrylic with diameters of 32, 16, and 10 cm, respectively.) Each part contains four probe holes around the perimeter, 90 degrees apart and 1 cm from the edge and the pediatric head has one probe hole in its center. The inside diamenter of the holes is 1.31 cm. Each part includes five acrylic rods for plugging all the holes of the phantom. A strudy storage and carrying case with wheels and pull handle that holds all three phantoms in included; as an option a smaller case without wheels is aailable. The new design is a more lightweight and portable set of quality assurance phantoms for measuring CT dose index (CTDI) in both children and adults. "The Nested CT Dose Phantom Set is specially designed to be as lightweight and portable as possible -- 60 lbs. lighter than the separate three phantom set. The pediatric head and pediatric body/adult head segments are simply nested inside the large adult body. This makes it much more convenient to use and carry around” said Gary Kaufmann, Diagnostic product line manager for Fluke Biomedical, Radiation Management Services. “Anyone performing CT quality assurance will appreciate this back-saving solution.” Applications The CT Dose Phantoms were designed in accordance with the Food and Drug Administration's performance standard for diagnostic x-ray systems, which includes regulations specifically applicable to CT systems (21 CFR 1020.33). The Nested CT Dose Phantom comes in a handy carrying case with wheels and a pull handle or can be ordered with an optional case without wheels and a standard handle that is more economical.
