The CT/SIM Check phantom streamlines daily CT QA for TG-66 compliance. When paired with PIPSpro software, it provides automated reporting, trending, and data analysis, ensuring consistent image quality and accurate patient simulation.
This phantom allows checks for HU constancy, volume uniformity, geometric scaling, laser alignment, image orientation, and isocenter localization. Its Virtual Water® material ensures reproducible density and electron equivalence, while density plugs simulate lung, liver, water, and bone.
Compact, reproducible, and efficient, CT/SIM Check is integral to routine QA, preventing or detecting CT simulation errors that could impact planning and treatment delivery.
