Phantech phantoms contain unique features that alleviate the pains associated with using most other phantoms. For example, they include bubble traps outside of the scan region, employ a unique single channel to simplify filling and force all air out of the scan region, contain screw/O-ring assemblies or luer lock caps to prevent leaking, and include two ports on fill regions to simplify filling and emptying.

Resolution (Derenzo) PhantomsPhantech has several different Derenzo patterns for preclinical PET and SPECT applications. Each one features our patented linear flow technology (Patent US9625584B1) that makes filling a breeze, prevents bubbles, and reduces the amount of radiation required to fill the hole pattern. This results in a safer phantom that produces higher quality images. We have several standard hole patterns with holes ranging from 0.7 mm to 2.5 mm. We can also create custom patterns if the standard options do not quite fit your individual needs.

Uniformity PhantomsPhantech uniformity phantoms are designed to perform quality control and calibration on field uniformity, normalization and quantification calibration scans in nuclear medicine. They are constructed to ensure a perfectly homogenous concentration by preventing air bubbles and sticking of radioactivity to the interior surface. Configured in two standard sizes, these uniformity phantoms will allow one to customize protocols and calibrations in order to yield the highest quantitative accuracy for each scanning condition.

Partial Volume Correction (PVC) PhantomsDesigned for signal recovery of small lesions for preclinical PET and SPECT imaging systems, Phantech PVC phantoms are designed with one continuous channel connecting numerous precise spherical or ellipsoidal volumes, these PVC phantoms allow for the easy and automated generation of a recovery coefficient (RC)-based PVC curve. Our PVC phantoms are available with several different outside diameters (27mm, 34mm, and 49mm) and sphere sizes to accommodate different bore sizes and scanner specifications. Each PVC phantom also features a separate fillable "warm" region to simulate background tissues.

NEMA Standard PhantomsPhantech has economical phantoms that adhere to the National Electrical Manufacturers Association (NEMA) standards. Assembled with three main pieces and associated hardware, the standard NEMA phantoms that are currently available include the NEMA NU4-2008 (NU4IQ) and SPECT-IQ (as detailed in E.P. Visser et al. 2011, Nuclear Instruments and Methods in Physics Research A). These standard phantoms feature three fillable regions that allow the assessment of PET or SPECT scanner image quality (IQ).

Custom PhantomsNeed a custom phantom? Contact us today to discuss your project at no cost up front. You will not be charged unless we both decide to move forward with a project and only if we determine it is something that we can do. Custom work could be as minor as wanting one of our other phantoms in a different size or pattern, or could be as major as needing something entirely new. Either way, we are happy to work with you to make your project a reality, and offer very competitive pricing for custom work.

Business to Business SolutionsAre you a manufacturer of preclinical or clinical medical imaging systems? If so, we want to work with you to create a custom set of phantoms that are specific to your system and your calibration protocols that you can transfer directly to your customers. Let us take the work of developing phantoms off your plate. We are willing to co-brand any products and will work directly with you at every stage of the process. The phantoms can be a selection of our commercially available products or completely custom to you.
