Acrylic X-Ray Modular Phantom

Part Number: 99-9413

The modular Acrylic X-ray Phantom Kit is made up of a series of acrylic and aluminum plates that provide the various attenuation characteristics of various body part thicknesses. Varying the number of acrylic plates and/or spacers can create a simulation of a standard chest, abdomen, skull, or extremity.

This phantom kit is ideal for adjusting automatic exposure controls and automatic brightness controls on diagnostic and fluoroscopic systems. It is also useful for making exposure technique charts for commonly-used projections (per JCAHO requirements).

The acrylic phantoms conform to AAPM recommendations noted in Report #31 (Standardized Methods for Measuring Diagnostic X-ray Exposure) and Report #60 (Instrumentation Requirements for Diagnostic Radiological Physicists).
