The Thyroid Phantom is an integral part of the Fission-Product Phantom, but it can also be supplied separately (with or without a head). This phantom has the same contours as in the full Fission-Product Phantom.
The Thyroid Phantom contains a neck with corresponding “Superhuman Skeleton” vertebrae, a hollow-shell thyroid with filling and flushing ports, and a front cover of tissue-equivalent phantom material.
This assembly has been designed for rapid removal of the cover plate and thyroid, a quick fill with an isotope solution and an equally rapid reassembly. This permits work with iodines of very short half-lives. A portion of the clavicles and sternum are included to further enhance the realism of the phantom.

This phantom includes 5 types of thyroid glands (40, 30, 21, 17, 15cc) for measurement purposes and cervical vertebrae from C3 to C7 for scatteration. Radiopharmaceuticals can be filled into the thyroid glands to be visible by SPECT and PET.
