The Adult Head (Training, V1) is an X-ray/CT, MRI, and ultrasound-compatible training phantom used by radiology schools, medical schools & teaching hospitals for training their students & medical professionals in various scanning techniques. The skull bone has a realistic three-layered structure with an inner diploe layer. This
phantom can be used with Barium-sulfate, Iodine-based, Gadolinium-based, Microbubble,
and Iron Oxide-based contrast mediums.
In terms of MRI applications, the phantom tissues have realistic T2 relaxation time values, which makes this product 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.
