The Adult Female Torso Phantom is a groundbreaking innovation in medical imaging simulation, offering an unprecedented level of anatomical accuracy. With the help of AI (Artificial Intelligence) software, this phantoms design has been directly extracted from CT scans of a live, healthy 35-year-old patient with a height of 168cm (5’5″) and a BMI adjusted to 22. As a result, it features highly realistic anatomical structures and organ positioning. Developed in collaboration with medical professionals in the United States and Switzerland, this advanced phantom sets a new standard in medical imaging education, system development, and research applications.
Engineered with multi-modality compatibility, the Adult Female Torso Phantom is optimized for X-Ray, CT, and MRI, making it a versatile tool for a wide range of clinical and research purposes. Its advanced tissue-mimicking materials closely replicate soft tissue and bone of real human tissue. This high level of realism is particularly beneficial for radiology training, where medical students, residents, and technologists can gain hands-on experience using this phantom with different imaging equipment.
This phantom also offers insight into several specialties dedicated to women’s health, as well as general medical fields that frequently address female-specific conditions. For example, gynecology, breast oncology, and mammography, with the potential for customizations to address obstetrics, including childbirth and pregnancy.
In terms of MRI applications, the phantom tissues have realistic T2 relaxation time values, which makes this product the best fit for any T2-weighted MRI imaging methods. Very good results can also be achieved with proton-density imaging methods. The phantom can still be imaged with T1-weighted methods, but the T1 values are less realistic, and they are within the range of about 100 ms.

Note: Although this product is primarily compatible with X-Ray CT and MRI, it can also be used under Ultrasound imaging. The only region of the torso that may yield slightly less realistic results is the GI tract (stomach and intestines).
Optional Add-Ons:
The Adult Female Torso can also be made dynamic with our heart and lung pumps to simulation respiratory motion. If you would like to receive a quote or additional information on these pumps, please contact us at [email protected].
