The Model 071 Image-Guided Abdominal Biopsy Phantom is based on the need for simplified abdominal training phantoms. Although it does not contain organs, the randomly positioned lesions are visible under ultrasound and CT.
Twelve randomly positioned lesions range in size from 8 to 12mm. The phantom also includes ribs and a simulated spine. The solid polymer gel will not leak when punctured. This phantom is well suited for training and demonstrating image-guided navigation technologies or any other procedure where visually locating the needle is important.
Features include; improved performance of freehand abdominal biopsies; testing new equipment and validating automated biopsy systems.
