Adult Spine for X-Ray CT
The Adult Spine Phantom comprises 25 vertebrae arranged in a semi-cylindrical body-mimicking tissue. The vertebrae have a realistic three-layered structure with adjustable inner porosity. Made from patented bone material suitable for X-Ray/CT, it is used in medical imaging research and treatment planning.
Adult Spine Phantom consists of 25 individual vertebrae assembled on top of each other. The vertebrae have a realistic three-layered structure, and their inner porosity can be adjusted according to the requirement of the particular project.
The Phantom is designed based on average human anatomy, and the bones are made out of realistic patented bone material that is suitable for X-Ray/CT applications. It can be used for medical imaging research and treatment planning of various medical procedures.
