Dynamic Adult Human Head Phantom is designed to be suitable for medical imaging of blood flow underneath the skull. The phantom is designed based on an average anatomy of a human male head and it is made out of realistic soft and hard tissue mimicking materials suitable for Ultrasound, MRI and CT applications.The phantom consists of following components:
Anatomically correct realistic skull
Anatomically correct brain phantom
Complex blood vessel structure with incorporated Circle of Willis
One bifurcation
One stenosis
Two aneurysms.
Upon special request, the phantom features and the properties of the tissue mimicking materials can be customized based on the requirements of any particular project.
