The Small Parts Basic QA Phantom (US-4B) is designed for quality assurance testing and performance evaluation of ultrasound systems used in small parts imaging, such as thyroid, lymph nodes, tendons, or superficial vessels.
It enables testing of spatial resolution, linearity, sensitivity, penetration depth, and distance accuracy at various frequencies.
Compatible with linear, sector, and convex probes, it is suitable for both training and routine QA procedures in clinical and biomedical settings.
The phantom includes internal reference targets for comprehensive testing:
- wire targets for axial and lateral resolution,
- anechoic targets for sensitivity and small object detection,
- depth and distance markers for system calibration.
Compact and highly durable, the phantom ensures consistent imaging quality and excellent reproducibility for ongoing QA programs.
