Adult Skull with Brain for X-Ray CT, Ultrasound and MRI
The Adult Skull with Brain Phantom is a versatile tool for medical imaging research, treatment planning of
non-invasive brain surgeries, and more. It features a realistic three-layered skull structure and an inner diploe
layer made from a patented epoxy-based bone material suitable for Ultrasound, MRI, and X-Ray/CT scans. The brain
inside the phantom includes blood vessels and bifurcation features.
The Adult Human Skull with Brain Phantom is a versatile tool ideal for medical research and treatment planning,
specifically for non-invasive HIFU brain surgeries and medical imaging studies. Resembling the Head Phantom but
without skin-mimicking tissue, this model features a realistic three-layered structure with an inner diploe layer,
closely resembling the average human male skull. Crafted from a patented epoxy-based bone material, it ensures
compatibility with Ultrasound, MRI, and X-Ray/CT applications. Customization options for different parts of the
skull are also available upon request. This phantom can be used with Barium-sulfate, Iodine-based, Gadolinium-based,
Microbubble, and Iron Oxide-based contrast mediums.
The phantom incorporates the complete ventricular system, including lateral, third, and fourth ventricles. These
inflatable ventricles simulate realistic pressure dynamics within the brain, closely approximating actual cerebral
anatomy. The ventricles can be filled with various liquids to achieve desired effects.
For MRI applications, the phantom’s tissues exhibit realistic T2 relaxation time values, making it an excellent fit
for T2-weighted MRI imaging techniques. Proton Density imaging methods also yield high-quality outcomes. While
T1-weighted techniques are viable, T1 values are less accurate, falling within the approximate range of 100 ms.
Before imaging the phantom, please fill the ventricles with water (or chosen contrast agent) using the tube on the
back of the brain. After filling the ventricles, plug the tube with a removable blue silicone plug.
