Extended Oval PET Phantom™
Simulates the distribution of radioactivity throughout the long body torso*
The Extended Oval PET Phantom Set™ is designed to simulate the distribution of radioactivity throughout the long body torso*. It consists of a set of two 40 cm long cylinder sections with oval shape cross section to simulate the long body torso. A single 40 cm section fills the axial FOV of a large camera
Main Applications:- Evaluation of cancer imaging using camera-based and dedicated PET systems
- Measurements of contrast, signal-to-noise ratio using hot inserts
- Evaluation of the effects of out-of field-of-view activiites
- Evaluation of attenuation and scatter correction
- Research
