Lillie Canine Ultrasound Phantom Training Kit

The ‘Lillie’ Canine Ultrasound Phantom Model is handcrafted, a process which involves 70+ production steps and 35 moulds, so each model is unique. Designed for training, it includes key canine abdominal structures. Whilst not an exact replica, the detailed craftsmanship ensures an authentic ultrasound appearance, which closely mimics real patients

This kit is the perfect set of starter tools for anyone learning to hone the essential fine motor skills necessary for developing great abdominal ultrasound techniques. Essential. Ethical. Sustainable. High-quality veterinary ultrasound training.

Kit Contents

    Each new kit includes three separate phantoms:
  • The ‘Lillie’ Canine Phantom
  • The ‘Skills’ Phantom Block
  • The ‘Ultrasound-Guided Fine Needle’ Training Block along with ...
  • A copy of the Aspire UCS ‘Step-by-Step Ultrasound Image Optimisation Guide’
  • A copy of the Aspire UCS ‘Top Tips for Ultrasound-Guided Needle Procedures’
  • A training task booklet on how to get the most from your ‘Lillie’ Ultrasound Phantom Training Kit
  • A pot of high-quality ‘Aquasonic 100’ ultrasound gel and a pack of environmentally-friendly ‘Anigene Professional Surface Disinfectant Wipes’, recommended for cleaning and protecting the phantoms.
    ‘Lillie’ contains the following anatomical tissue-mimicking structures:
  • heart, ribs and lung,
  • liver, gallbladder, spleen, pancreas,
  • kidneys and adrenal glands, urinary bladder, stomach, duodenum, ileum, colon,
  • aorta and caudal vena cava.
    The ‘Skills’ phantom block contains the following:
  • spiral structure
  • anechoic tortuous ‘vessel’
  • echogenic ring
  • hyperechoic nodule with hypoechoic cavity; to identify and assess.

The ‘Renal FNA Phantom’ is designed for needling - enabling the safe practice of ultrasound-guided needle placement.

Position #1: Dorsal Recumbency

In dorsal recumbency, users practice identifying key abdominal structures such as the stomach, pyloric region, duodenum, liver, and gallbladder in both long and short axis views. The training focuses on adjusting depth, gain, time gain compensation, dynamic range, and zoom controls to optimise image clarity and contrast. Trainees refine probe positioning by rotating and sliding to capture different orientations, improving spatial understanding. Measurements of structures like the cystic duct enhance precision and confidence. This position helps develop reproducible scanning techniques and enhances interpretation before working with live patients.

Position #2: Left Lateral Recumbency

Left lateral recumbency training emphasizes locating and assessing the right kidney and adrenal gland, honing skills in optimising focus depth, focal zones, frequency, and zoom for detailed imaging. Users practise measuring organ dimensions accurately and comparing repeated measurements to ensure consistency. Additionally, following the duodenum’s path in both long and short axes helps refine probe movement isolation and image optimisation. Identification and imaging of the right pancreatic limb further develop anatomical recognition and scanning versatility. This position strengthens control over probe manipulation and image quality for confident ultrasound assessment.

Position #3: Right Lateral Recumbency

In right lateral recumbency, users focus on locating and optimising images of the left kidney in both long and short axis views, practising probe alignment to maintain the kidney’s horizontal orientation for accurate measurements. They perform comparative measurements with the kidney horizontal and non-horizontal to understand the impact of probe positioning. The training extends to imaging the left adrenal gland, adjusting depth, frequency, zoom, and focus for clear, reproducible assessments, including repeated measurements for consistency. Participants also examine the spleen’s extent and echotexture, practising overlapping sweeps to fully map this and adjacent organs. Finally, scanning the urinary bladder in multiple planes and optimising controls helps highlight anechoic content and outline clarity, reinforcing comprehensive ultrasound skills.

Product Care & Maintenance

    Dos for the ‘Lillie’ Canine Ultrasound Phantom Training Kit:
  • Lift properly - Use both hands under the phantom ‘belly’ to remove the ‘Lillie’ phantom and always place it in the case feet-first to prevent misshaping.
  • Use a stable surface - Place the phantoms on a clean, non-slip, wipeable surface.
  • Optimize ultrasound settings - Set acoustic power to 100%, turn harmonics off, and use the lowest frequency for best penetration.
  • Adjust image quality - Optimise acoustic power, overall gain, TGC, depth, dynamic range, and focus (if available on the ultrasound system), before each demonstration.
  • Only use needles on The ‘Fine Needle Training’ Block. The ‘Skills’ and ‘Lillie’ phantoms are SCAN ONLY and the guarantee is invalidated if needles are used.
  • Use appropriate needle size - Only small bore/calibre needles (in numerical terms, 21 or 22 gauge or higher) for the fine needle training block; larger bore needles will cause irreparable damage.
  • Clean properly - Use non-alcohol-based medical wipes before and after use.
  • Store correctly - Keep phantoms in their dedicated case/containers when not in use.
  • Maintain hygiene - Wash hands after use.
  • Store in cool, dry conditions.
    Don‘ts for the ‘Lillie’ Canine Ultrasound Phantom Training Kit:
  • For safety reasons, never place the phantoms in your mouth.
  • Avoid contact with certain materials - Keep phantoms away from plastic, paper, towels, or printed materials to prevent surface damage.
  • Never place/store phantoms near a heat source.
  • Do not use the ‘Skills Block’ and ‘Lillie’ phantom for needle practice - they are SCAN ONLY and not for ultrasound-guided needle practice.
  • Do not use needle gauges ‹21 (large bore needles) as they will permanently damage the Ultrasound-Guided Fine Needle Training Block.
  • Avoid abrasive cleaning - Do not use harsh materials to clean or wipe the phantoms.
