The PH-39 Dynamic Thorax Phantom is an anthropomorphic chest phantom designed to simulate respiratory motion for CT imaging, particularly respiratory gating, dosimetry and radiotherapy planning applications.
This phantom realistically mimics the movement of the diaphragm and pulmonary nodules during breathing. The nodule moves independently of the diaphragm according to programmable respiratory cycles. Six preset breathing patterns are included and can be modified and stored by the user. Up to three respiratory profiles can be run in sequence. Three operating modes are available: basic, combination, and user.
TLD insertion sites are provided to simulate dose at the nodule position. The phantom set includes chest torso, mediastinum with right pulmonary vessels, diaphragm block, nodule rotation unit, set of simulated nodules, controller, storage case and instruction manual.
