Description
The Spine for R&D is made up of twelve vertebrae; labeled T1-T12 stacked one on top of each other.
The Phantom is designed based on average human anatomy and it is made out of realistic patented bone material that is suitable for Ultrasound, MRI and CT applications. It can be used for medical imaging research and treatment planning of various medical procedures. (Upon request, it can be modified for a lumbar or spine lumbar practice phantom with soft tissue-mimicking material surrounded to it)
The vertebrae’s have a realistic three-layered structure and the inner porosity can be adjusted according to the requirement of the particular project.
