Adult Skull for X-Ray CT, US, MRI
The Adult Skull Phantom is an excellent tool for medical imaging research and treatment planning of non-invasive HIFU brain surgeries. The design is based on a CT scan of a human male head, and the skull is made from a realistic patented epoxy-based bone material suitable for Ultrasound, MRI, and X-Ray/CT applications. The phantom features a realistic three-layered structure with adjustable inner porosity (diploe) to meet specific project requirements.
