Product highlights

• gold disc diameter accuracy of 0.001 mm (1 μm) and thickness accuracy of 0.1 nm (0.0001 μm)
• gold disc objects positioned as per EUREF specs
• objects’ diameter, thickness and layout can be modified according to individual specifications
• no materials other than PMMA are used, so there is no need to calculate PMMA-equivalent attenuation for other materials such as aluminium
• for full-field analog and digital units
• Diagnomatic software provides automatic and semi-automatic analysis of phantom’s images, returning the Contrast-Details curve and the remaining data required for evaluation
