The knee phantom’s structure and geometry are based on an average adult human knee. The synthetic bones used in this phantom are made out of our patented bone material, and the soft tissues are cast individually from our urethane-based tissue-mimicking materials, which are best suited for X-Ray CT and MRI imaging applications. The phantom can be used as a tool to conduct medical imaging research, radiology training, testing, and calibration-related work. This product can be further customized to match any project’s specific requirements.

In terms of MRI applications, the phantom tissues have realistic T2 relaxation time values, which makes this product be the best fit for any T2-weighted MRI imaging methods. Very good results can also be achieved with Proton Density imaging methods. The phantom can still be imaged with T1-weighted methods, but the T1 values are less realistic, and they are within the range of about 100 ms.

Upon request, this product can be customized with different pathologies as well as for specific training applications.
