Pro-CT MINI – Meditron Switzerland

Pro-CT MINI

Radiology

Diagnomatic

The Pro-CT MINI phantom is a compact CT image quality testing solution. When connected with Pro-CT Dose it may be used for carrying out acceptance and constancy tests of computed tomography systems according to IEC 61223-3-5 and the AAPM (American Association of Physicists in Medicine) guidelines. This phantom consists of a module 16 cm in diameter with positioning aids and recesses for test modules.

Benefits

When used with Pro-CT Dose the phantom can be used to do the following tests:

  • Geometric distortion

  • CT number (HU) measurement

  • Noise / uniformity

  • Artefacts

  • MTF

  • Spatial resolution

  • Contrast resolution

  • Low contrast resolution

  • Slice profile

  • Alignment

  • Linearity

  • Beamwidth

Main module:

  • Diameter: 160 mm

  • Thickness: 30 mm

  • 9 recesses for test inserts allow customized placement of test objects in space

  • Markings for easy and accurate positioning in the CT scanner

  • Set of holes on a given depth for testing geometry, distortions and slice position

  • Screws and extra plugs for mounting the module on any Pro-CT Dose Phantom (04-319)

Standard test inserts:

  • 5 contrast resolution inserts containing rods made from different materials: LDPE, PTFE, POM-C, air, plastic water equivalent. Diame ters of rods in each insert are: 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14 mm

  • High contrast resolution inserts containing 11 aluminium test elements for spatial resolution evaluation from 1 to 11 LP/cm

  • 2 geometry modules containing two pairs of aluminium wire ramps whose slope angle tangent is equal to 0.5

  • Linear Spread Function (LSF) insert - PTFE / PMMA interface

  • Point Spread Function (PSF) insert - 0.25 mm tungsten steel wire in air

optional inserts (04-404):

  • 3 low contrast inserts containing rods with a diameter: 2, 4, 5, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14 mm. The contrast difference between the rods and the surrounding material are 0.3, 0.6 and 1%

  • 3 high contrast resolution inserts containing 19 aluminium test elements for spatial resolution evaluation from 12 to 30 LP/cm

Accessories

  • carrying case

Product features:

  • Complies with:
    - IEC 61223-3-5
    - IEC 61223-2-6
    - AAPM guidelines

  • CE certified

  • The manual provides detailed guidelines for carrying out each test, results assessment and registration
