Description

Electron Density Phantom

The Electron Density phantom phantom is used to account for tissue heterogeneity in radiotherapy treatment planning. It can be used to define precise correlation of CT data to electron density of various tissues. Phantom consists of two nested disks that represent head and abdomen. Nine different tissue equivalent electron density plugs can be positioned at 17 different locations within the scan field. Included is a water vial plug that can be filled with any fluid. Optional distance marker plugs enable quick assessment of the CT scanner’s distance measurement accuracy.
