35080M/199XRAY
Non-Invasive kVp Divider and
Medical ScopeMeter
Technical Data
35080M Non-Invasive kVp Divider
The 35080M Non-Invasive kVp Divider quickly
and accurately measures kVp for all modalities.
The unit checks both above and below table
tubes and displays the direct kVp values on either
the 35050AT Dosimeter, the 199XRAY Medical
ScopeMeter, or optional Excel Add-in software.
The 35080M is highly portable and eliminates
the need for bulky and heavy high-voltage divider
tanks. In fact, its so compact in size that it ts
into a shirt pocket.
A patented* wide-range lter pack is included
with the 35080M and provides accurate readings
for the range of 50 kVp to 150 kVp. Four optional
lter packs are available for use with the 35080M
for CT, mammographic, and mobile applications.
199XRAY Medical Scopemeter
The 199XRAY Medical ScopeMeter has all of the
normal oscilloscope functions, as well as the
speed, performance, and analysis power for the
more demanding applications. This high-perfor-
mance oscilloscope offers specications found on
top-end bench instruments. With up to 200 MHz
bandwidth, 2.5 GS/s real-time sampling, and
a deep memory of 27,500 points per input, the
199XRAY is ideal for engineers who need the full
capabilities of a high-performance oscilloscope in
a handheld, battery-powered instrument.
In addition, the 199XRAY is especially designed
for use with x-ray systems. This ScopeMeter
displays kVp waveforms and direct kVp values
simultaneously on an easy-to-read screen. Now
you no longer have to waste time calculating
scope traces to derive the kVp values.
The winning combination
The 35080M and 199XRAY are commonly used x-ray tools unmatched by traditional meters. This
winning combination allows busy service engineers and biomedical personnel the ability to perform
fast and accurate verication of kVp values for calibration or QA assessment. Fluke Biomedical is
offering this combination in a convenient kit with all the accessories you need to get started.

Using the cursors, you can now
measure directly the amount
of radiation produced by x-ray
systems, or the total amount of
charge applied to a system.
Smart averaging
Smart averaging gives the aver-
aged waveform over successive
acquisitions, reducing noise in
the displayed waveform. Thanks
to smart averaging, you can now
also see an incidental curve of
a different wave shape with no
effect on the averaged curve.
This allows you to see the aver-
aged curve of a sequence of video
lines, for example, while still
seeing the incidental yback line
ash by. The oscilloscope gives
an immediate response when the
signal makes large changes.
Extended offset
Vertical offset is now extended
to a maximum of 16 divisions,
allowing vertical zoom-in for
study of small details of the

critical to the successful completion of
your inspection work process. With the
TNT 12000, simply turn the unit on and
begin measuring. No complicated menus
and no cables, as the TNT 12000 is
totally wireless.
Many x-ray test devices today rely on
cables for connection between detector
and display. Others have wireless capability
but use an off-the-shelf PDA to display
measured values. Cables are troublesome,
time consuming and easily damaged,
compromising performance reliability.
A PDA complicates operation, presenting
the user with unneeded functions and
problematic menus.

Product positioning
The TNT 12000 takes over
where other technology leaves
off. Featuring all-in-one-expo-
sure measurements and ZigBee
wireless communication com-
bined with the rugged, reliable,
and accurate design that is a
Fluke trademark, the TNT 12000
is truly a new breed of non-
invasive x-ray test tool.
TNT 12000 is ideal for use by
OEM factory and field service
engineers, independent service
organizations, physicists, bio-
medical and clinical engineers,
and local and regional field
inspectors of x-ray imaging
equipment. Its small, lightweight
design enhances portability
and 100 % wireless operation
ensures setup can be accom-
plished in seconds. Because the
TNT 12000 measures all param-
eters with every exposure, there
is no need for complicated menu
selection, further enhancing user
productivity. TNT 12000 always
defaults to the last use when
powered on, so when used often
for repetitive procedures it is
truly a one-button (power-on)
solution. The TNT 12000 has the
expanded functionality needed
for modern applications and can
be managed with minimum key-
strokes. Users can identify and
select custom measurement pro-
tocols and save them for future
use. Full test automation and
documentation software is avail-
able for TNT 12000, creating the
advantage of accurate, repeat-
able testing processes. Ansur
Test Automation Software is only
available from Fluke Biomedical.
Primary end benet
Productivity and accuracy are
central goals when performing
any maintenance or QA process
on diagnostic imaging equip-
ment because image system
uptime is critical to patient care
objectives. TNT 12000 is small,
portable, and wireless. It is
easily transported to the imaging
room, set up in seconds, and all
results are instantly available on
the hand-held display or on the
users laptop. The latter applica-
tion places measured values into
templates that are standard with
the Excel software provided
with TNT 12000. Because the
TNT 12000 Excel package is a
spreadsheet, users can customize
their templates and create their
own reports to send to others.
Accuracy, reproducibility, and
reliability are also critically
important and Fluke Biomedical
is the industry standard
customers count on to deliver
uncompromised performance.

Introduction
The Victoreen

NERO

mAx, Non-invasive Evaluator of Radiation Outputs, evaluates the widest range of x-ray machines on the
market today. Evaluation of pulsed fluoro, cine, computed tomography (CT), portable, mammographic, dental, radiographic,
fluoroscopic, low, medium, and high frequency machines is finally made possible with a single instrument. This fifth generation
instrument features 100 kHz sampling speed and direct mA/mAs measurements. The NEROmAxs innovative Easy Flow Menu
(EFM) system and flexible softkeys provide an intuitive, user friendly operating environment for quick, accurate, and easy
measurements. All measurement modes and functions are displayed on the NERO mAxs super bright LCD and are controlled by
the five softkeys directly below the display and three hard keys to the right.
Seven user selectable measurement modes and three system control modes are available and clearly displayed on the control
console screen for easy access and selection.
Applications
The NERO mAx consists of the control console, detector, detector cable, two filter cards, mAs leads, Excel Add-in, AC adapter,
HVL plates, instruction manual, and carrying case.
The compact control console houses the rechargeable battery, super bright easy to read backlit display, eight control buttons, and
the sophisticated electronics necessary for accurate, reproducible measurements. Connectors for power input, RS-232, printer,
scope output and the NERO mAx detector are located on the control consoles rear panel.
The NERO mAx detector contains sensors for simultaneously measuring kV, exposure or rate and mA or mAs. Solid state
detectors are used to measure kV. An ion chamber, located in the top of the detector, is used for exposure/rate measurements.
Connectors for external ion chambers and the NERO mAx detector interface are located on the rear panel of the detector. The
front panel has a keyed opening for the NERO mAx filter cards and a connector for mAs leads.
The filter cards contain the various filters needed to accurately measure kilovoltage. Each filter card is coded so that the NERO
mAx knows which filter is in use and its position. The NERO mAx also verifies that the filter card is valid for the selected
measurement mode. The two filter cards are keyed so that they may only be inserted properly. The W/Al filter card and the
Mammo filter card are clearly labeled as to the x-ray tube targets for which they are calibrated.
External chambers
External ion chambers for CT, mammographic, image intensifier tube, and special radiographic applications are available.
Chamber calibration factors can be stored in the NERO mAx for direct readout of measurements.
The Excel Add-in acquires measured data and waveforms directly into an Excel spread sheet to maximize flexibility for report
generation.

Introduction
The Victoreen

X-Ray Test Device, Model 4000M+does it all. Simply place the instrument in the x-ray beam, make one exposure,
and it serially displays kVp Maximum, kVp Average, kVp Effective, dose, and time. The Model 4000M+then automatically resets
for the next exposure. A CsI photodiode pair provide the kVp measurements through five user-selectable filter pairs. This ensures
optimum accuracy over the entire diagnostic range with minimum filtration dependence. Exposure measurements are made with a
parallel plate ionization chamber located above the filter wheel. Exposure time is measured with quartz crystal accuracy. Plus, a
variety of external ion chambers may be connected for even greater flexibility.

MAS-5 Meter
Model 07-MAS5
An intelligent meter that measures
mAs, exposure time, and mA all at
the same time
Provides mA waveform information
At a button press, the MAS-5 meter
will ignore the first 10 milliseconds
of exposure
AC and DC inputs
Introduction
For many years, service engineers have
been asking for a meter that measures mAs,
exposure time, and mA at the same time.
Diagnostic Imaging Specialists has
produced this meter with extra features. Not
only will the MAS-5 provide mAs,
exposure time, and mA, but the meter
provides mA waveform information. The
MAS-5 displays three 50 milliseconds mA
waveform samples so that radiographic and
mammographic pre-heat circuits can be
analyzed and adjusted without using an
oscilloscope. Based on feedback from field
service engineers, the MAS-5 also has a
button that when pushed causes the meter
to ignore the first 10 milliseconds of the
mA waveform.
Applications
The MAS-5 intelligent meter uses a microcontroller to analyze the digital mA
waveform and accurately displays the values essential for analyzing and calibrating
radiographic and mammographic equipment.
The four line LCD displays the following:
Line 1 mAs (average tube current (mA) times mA waveform exposure time)
Line 2 Exposure Time (mA waveform exposure time in seconds)
Line 3 mA (average tube current (mA) over the entire mA waveform)
Line 4 Three sample mA waveform values:
1st waveform value represents the average mA for the 1st 50 milliseconds of
exposure
2nd waveform value represents the average mA for the 2nd 50 milliseconds
of exposure
3rd waveform value represents the average mA for the 3rd 50 milliseconds of
exposure
Features
A button that causes the meter to ignore
the first 10 milliseconds of exposure
A diagnostic power-up sequence to
indicate operational status
Auto LCD update
Optional manual reset
Automatic power-down when meter is
not used for more than five minutes

07-487 Dual-Range Digital mAs Meter
Applications
The greatest use for the Nuclear
Associates Model 07-487 mAs meter is
in calibrating the high-current, short-time
station where a conventional mAs meter
is precluded by tube ratings. The
instrument can be used (after verifying
the generator accuracy) to set all mA
stations and check that phototiming error
does not exceed the limits of good
practice. To use, simply connect the
cable to the x-ray generator and make the
required exposure. The mAs reading
appears instantaneously on the four-digit
LCD. A display indicator warns of the
need for battery replacement.
Model 07-453
Digital X-Ray Pulse Counter/Timer
Key Features
Measures duration of radiation output produced by x-ray generators
Measures AC or DC x-rays
Gives direct readings (time or pulses)
Can be used for medical or dental x-ray systems
Designed specically to allow service personnel to accurately and easily assess the performance
of x-ray generators, timers, and controls
Saves time and money by reducing repeat examinations
Easy-to-read digital display
Automatic reset; holds a reading until the next exposure
Battery-operated, lightweight; ts easily into tool box or pocket
Output connector (included) allows a radiation output waveform to be viewed on an oscilloscope
For added operator convenience, the remote sensor is available as an option
Technical Data
Poor or inconsistent quality of x-ray images is
caused by an inaccurate generator timer. This
results in repeat examinations, which cost time
and money. A poorly maintained system is also
hazardous to the patient. When a malfunction
in the timer occurs, the patient may receive
unnecessary radiation doses. Regular monitoring
of x-ray systems and timers is an essential part of
a good quality-assurance program.
Model 07-453 Digital X-Ray Pulse Counter/
Timer is a non-invasive, solid-state instrument
that can be used to measure the exposure time
of either AC or DC x-rays. It can also measure the
duration of radiation output produced by a wide
variety of medical and dental x-ray systems. A
sensitive x-ray detector in the instrument allows
direct measurement of exposure from the x-ray
head. Pulses produced by half-wave and full-
wave x-rays are measured as 60 or 120 pulses
per second. For DC, capacitor discharge and
three-phase x-rays, Model 07-453 measures the
exposure time in milliseconds. When testing x-
ray timers and controls, the time of relay contact
closure can be measured using the AC input
feature.
An output connector on the side of Model
07-453 allows the user to view a radiation
output waveform on an oscilloscope. Using
this feature, technicians can diagnose and
troubleshoot problems with x-ray generators.

Introduction
Whether you choose the
Wide-Range,
Mammographic, or the
Dental Digital kVp
Meter, you will get
quick and accurate
measurements of your
diagnostic x-ray
generator tube potential.
These instruments need
no connection to the
x-ray generator.
Applications
These lightweight, rugged units are extremely easy to use: simply place on the x-ray
table, with the detector facing the x-ray source. With the beams central ray centered
on the detector, an exposure is made, and the reading appears immediately on the
large, easy-to-read liquid crystal display.
Unique features are provided to ensure maximum efficiency and accuracy. Readings
remain on display until the next exposure is made, at which time the reading is
automatically updated. Automatic display indicators tell you when adjustment of
exposure factors or battery replacement is necessary. Neither remote-control cables
nor time-consuming manual re-zeroing are needed.
A BNC connector is provided for radiation waveform display on a storage
oscilloscope.

Star X-Ray Test Patterns for Measuring Focal Spot Size
Focal spot size can be determined by observing the regions of blurring which occur when the pattern is
radiographed by an x-ray source of finite dimensions. Radiation from different areas of the focal spot will
cause a periodic blurring of the pattern due to penumbra effects. Knowledge of the geometric factors, and
the distance from the center of the pattern to the region where blurring occurs, will permit the calculation of
the focal spot size with the same accuracy as measurements made with a pinhole camera.

Focal Spot Test Tool
Model 07-591
Collimator Verification of the proper
alignment of the collimator light field with the
x-ray field is essential in radiographic quality
control. This device readily indicates a 1% or
2% misalignment at a 40 inch focal-film
distance (FFD), but it may be used at any FFD.
It consists of a flat 8 x 10 inch plate with a
14 x 18 cm pattern etched on its surface. It
can also be used to check fluoroscopy
alignment and collimation.
Beam alignment Improper central ray
alignment will distort a radiographic image.
This device provides a simple means of
determining if the x-ray beam is
perpendicular to the image receptor and
centered with respect to the light field. A steel
ball is mounted in the center of a disc at each
Provides a simple pass-
fail test to determine if an
x-ray tube focal spot has
been damaged. Consists of a
6 inch high stand with an
eleven-group test pattern.
Each group has six bars,
three of which are
positioned at right angles to
the adjacent set. The groups
diminish in size from 0.66
line pairs/mm (1.75 mm) to
2.88 line pairs/mm
(0.3 mm). By observing the
radiograph and using the
supplied chart, showing
resolution vs. focal spot
size, the nominal focal spot dimension (in mm) can be determined.

Grid Alignment Test Tool
Model 07-644
Increased patient radiation
dose and reduced image
contrast can result from
lateral decentering or
tilting of a focused grid
used in a Bucky apparatus.
The Grid Alignment Test
Tool is used to check
whether a focused grid is
aligned properly with the
central ray and the center
of the film cassette. It
consists of a set of three
plastic-covered, 0.062 inch thick lead plates: one 9.125 x 3.625 inch
test plate, and two 3.56 x 2.375 inch blocker plates. The large test
plate contains five 0.375 inch test holes and five 0.062 inch
orientation holes.
Its easy to use. The test tool is centered on the x-ray table and fixed
in position perpendicular to the grid lines. Five exposures are made,
with the x-ray beam sequentially centered on each of five holes, and
the optical densities of the hole images are compared. A properly
centered and leveled grid will result in equal density changes in the
hole images on either side of the central hole. Unequal density
changes indicate the need for corrective action.

Angiographic Head
Phantoms
Model RS-230 to RS-245T
Diagnostic Imaging DI
Introduction
Fluke Biomedical Angiographic Head Phantoms bridge the gap between physical and
anatomical information requirements. Molded in tissue-equivalent material, an
accurate male skull contains a 3-dimensional, high-contrast vascular simulation to
facilitate correlation of the radiologists subjective evaluation of angiographic image
quality with actual measurements of resolution and contrast under the same exposure
conditions.
Each Angiographic Head Phantom contains a 5-step wedge. A 2-10 line pair/mm test
pattern is optional. Other patterns or test objects and custom pathologies are
available on special order.
The Angiographic Head Phantom provides a dry run to completely check out
angiographic equipment and ensure that it is operating satisfactorily in all significant
details before subjecting patients to radiological procedures. If the imaging system
malfunctions, the phantom also plays a critically important role in isolating and
verifying correction of the problems. The Angiographic Head Phantom confines the
variables to components and technique and is an invaluable service and teaching tool.

Applications
Unique RSD soft-tissue equivalent material is used for the skin
tissue and neck and is adjusted to brain density in the cranium.
This material closely duplicates brain tissues in radio-
absorptive and scatter properties. The phantom is virtually
shatterproof.
A high-contrast 3-dimensional vascular pattern is placed in the
median plane. The pattern closely resembles an internal carotid
arteriogram in its early phase. The radio-density of the
angiographic pattern has been adjusted to represent a 75%
contrast-media. The phantom can be used omnidirectionally.
The Angiographic Head
Phantom is available as
either a full or half head.
The full head has the
advantage of representing
the full scatter properties
and subject contrast of a
human head. The half-head
model is well suited to non-
grid techniques. It has the
advantages of lighter weight,
lower cost and smaller size,
easily fitting into a briefcase.
The combination of the
simulated vascular pattern, resolution chart, and stepwedge
enables the user to correlate physical parameters (such as
resolution, contrast and speed) with the subjective evaluation
of the skull markings and the vascular detail.
The Angiographic Head Phantom is available in either
transparent or opaque models.

Introduction
Developed in conjunction with the
University of California at
Irvines Department of
Radiological Sciences, the Fluke
Biomedical Lung/Chest Phantom
is a specialized phantom,
providing a high degree of realism
in chest radiography.
The Fluke Biomedical Lung/Chest
Phantom extends from the neck to below the diaphragm. It is molded about a male
skeleton, corresponding to the external body size of a patient, 5 feet, 9 inches
(175 cm) tall and weighing 162 lbs (73.5 kg). The Fluke Biomedical phantom
materials are equivalent to natural bone and soft-tissues.
Animal lungs are selected to match the size of an adult male. Lungs are fixed in the
inflated state and are molded to conform to the pleural cavities of the phantom. The
pulmonary arteries are injected with a blood-equivalent plastic.
The Lung/Chest Phantom with simulated left coronary artery reveals several areas of
coronary artery irregularity and narrowing.
The next best thing to human lungs

MAMMO II Phantom
MAMMO II Phantom is a patient substitute that allows
instructors to teach mammography positioning. Mammograms,
taken within the range of standard technical factors, provide
realistic images with high contrast.
MAMMO II simplifies classroom procedures, allowing
trainees to take as many exposures as are needed to develop
expertise.
Teaches positioning for craniocaudal and mediolateral oblique
views
Teaches spot-compression procedures
Sensitivity training for patient comfort
Helpful in training male students (no more loaded vests to simulate
breasts)
A molded gel provides realistic compressibility. Mammograms
are taken at a breast thickness of 5 cm, using normal technical
factors.
The breast is mounted on a post with adjustments for height
and the angles needed for various views.
A small indicator box is placed next to the breast to signal
when the 5 cm breast thickness is reached. An ouch is
represented by a red warning light which informs the trainee
that a patients pain level can be reached at about this
compression. The light is actuated 5 mms before the dead stop
produced by the box. This procedure emphasizes the care
needed for patients when the pain zone is reached.

machine with a
defective
collimator
In misaligned fluoroscopic image
intensifier systems, the portion of the
field that falls outside the visible area of
the image receptor does not contribute to
the useful fluoroscopic image and can
result in unnecessary exposure to the
patient.
If corrective measures are required,
this device will provide a measurement
of optimum beam alignment. It consists
of an aluminum plate with four sliding
brass strips set in recessed channels. The
strips define the visible area of the image
receptor and are adjustable with respect
to the center of the measurement plate. A
transparent plastic overlay on the
aluminum plate prevents the vertical
displacement of the brass strips. Holes
drilled at 0.5 inch intervals through the
center of each channel are filled with
high density plugs. The visibility of the
plugs in the fluoroscopic image permits
their use as a means of centering the
device.

EZ CR/DR DIN Test Tool
Model 07-605-7777
Quick and easily optimize images
from your CR/DR system
Effectively reduces equipment
downtime
Incorporates the DIN standard
test pattern, DIN 6868/58
Dramatically reduces repeat patient
exams; thus preventing unnecessary
patient exposure due to problems
related to the image acquisition
chain and poor image quality
Lightweight, durable
Easy-to-use, no moving parts
Cost-effective
Introduction
The EZ CR/DR DIN Test Tool is a timely and valuable solution to the image
quality maintenance problem. Technologists, radiologists and physicists can easily
perform quick and reliable assessments of their CR/DR systems.
Todays new image acquisition chains are considerably more complex than
conventional screen/film systems. Computed Radiography (CR)/Digital Radiography
(DR) systems involve special processing for each body part. This is controlled by
computers, rather than chemical processors and soft copy displays, which are
calibrated using light meters rather than visual inspection. CR/DR systems also
incorporate laser beams, photomultiplier tubes, network gateways and laser printers.
The EZ CR/DR DIN Test Tool is designed specifically for evaluating the entire
CR/DR image acquisition chain.
Applications
Ideal for use as a preventive maintenance quality control test tool, the EZ CR/DR
DIN Test Tool can also be used to take regularly scheduled measured data points
from the image, such as line pair resolution measurements, ROIs (regions of interest)
and geometry symmetry. Measurements/angle can be used to evaluate monitor, as
well as printed film image quality.
By performing daily quality control checks, both before the first patient is examined
and at the end of the day, equipment problems can be accurately and easily
pinpointed and corrected. Equipment downtime will also be significantly reduced,
resulting in increased patient throughput. Patients will no longer need to endure
repeat exams due to poor image quality.
Youll soon realize a dramatic savings in film costs when you use our EZ CR/DR
DIN Test Tool as part of your QC program. In addition, radiological personnel will
experience significantly less of the problems and frustrations associated with
equipment maintenance and thank you for it.

Introduction
The Nationwide Evaluation of X-Ray Trends (NEXT) dental protocol has been
issued to provide guidelines for quality control procedures for diagnostic dental
radiography. In order to perform these procedures, a suitable phantom was
developed: the CDRH Dental Image Quality Test Tool (Model 76-025).
The J CAHO requires certain standards to be met regarding radiographic quality
control. The CDRH Dental Image Quality Test Tool (Model 76-025) facilitates
compliance with these standards, since the standards were compiled using a
prototype of this phantom.
The CDRH Dental Image Quality Test Tool (Model 76-025) is designed specifically
for testing the functionality of dental x-ray units, and provides a means of evaluating
half value layer, determination of kVp, and assessing overall image quality. It is the
only dental test tool designed with dental service personnel and inspectors in mind.
The test tool will significantly improve the ability of service personnel to quickly and
accurately survey the image quality of the x-ray unit. The CDRH Dental Image
Quality Test Tool can also be used as a constancy check for x-ray film processing,
making it the most versatile and cost-effective dental test tool available today.
Applications
Clinical imaging involves diagnosis of tooth pathology. In order to permit an
accurate simulated clinical image evaluation, the test tool contains a human tooth
encased in its center. The CDRH Dental Image Quality Test Tool (Model 76-025)
consists of a wooden cradle (to hold the test tool body), built-in slots (for attenuation

filters), a film slot, an exposure chamber
holder, and a mounting screw (for use
with a tripod). The test tool comes with
an aluminum step wedge that is designed
for evaluating darkroom fog and
consistency testing. The step wedge has
two slots, one for exposing a film pack
and one for evaluating darkroom fog. The
film slot also ensures easy, reproducible
placement of the film for consistent
imaging.
To use the CDRH Dental Image Quality
Test Tool (Model 76-025), it is necessary
to establish an acceptable baseline or
standard for the x-ray unit performance.
The test tool should be imaged using the
same technical factors that were used to
establish the baseline. These images,
when compared to the baseline, will
allow the user to determine if image
quality degradation is occurring so
appropriate corrective action can be
taken.

For fine-tuning of radiographic and fluoroscopic imaging systems, it is
recommended that the phantom be imaged at least monthly on all radiographic and
fluoroscopic equipment. To attain the most accurate, up-to-date quality control
information, a daily or weekly frequency is preferable. When used daily, the R/F QC
Phantom will allow the technologist to quickly determine whether the equipment is
functioning correctly. This easy-to-use phantom allows the user to complete the
suggested protocol in approximately 5 minutes or less, when used on a standard R/F
system. Once the phantom is imaged, simply graph the results to determine any
trends that may indicate a degradation of
imaging system performance, such as a steady
but slow change in the fluoro kVp or in the
radiographic mAs.

In a survey of fluoroscopic facilities for the NEXT program, it was determined that a
substantial proportion of facilities could not visualize low-contrast test objects; this
strongly suggests image quality problems. Measurements for this survey were
performed using the Model 07-649 CDRH Fluoroscopic Phantom. In addition to air
kerma rate (free in air) measurements, imaging performance was assessed using the
Fluoroscopic Image Quality Test Object (included with phantom).

Introduction
Most definitions of image quality in
radiology are based on characterizing
the physical properties of the image
chain. However, medical diagnosis is
not made by the image alone; observer
perception greatly affects the result.
Digital radiography
The CDRAD Phantom from Nuclear
Associates is an excellent tool for
evaluating the imaging characteristics of
digital radiographic systems, including
stimulable phosphor computed
radiography systems and
teleradiography systems.
One of the principle concerns with the use of digital radiography, is the potential
reduction in the visibility of detail due to the blurring introduced at various places within
the system, such as the film digitizers, display monitors, and the sampling of the image
into discrete pixels. Loss of detail is the image characteristic which can have an adverse
affect on diagnosis. Resolution (bar phantom) test objects which are used to evaluate
conventional x-ray imaging systems are generally not appropriate for evaluating digital
systems. The CDRAD Phantom provides a reliable and objective evaluation of the loss of
detail from blurring at any point within the system.

Image evaluation
To evaluate the phantom image, the observer indicates the
location of the second spot in each square. Correct indication
proves that a contrast is
actually seen
At the transition from
visible to invisible, it is
difficult to decide in
which corner the second
spot is located, and the
response equals pure
chance
The line connecting the
central spots with the
smallest visible diameter
and contrast is called the
Contrast Detail (CD) Curve
For comparison of the
imaging performance of
different systems,
phantom images are made
under identical conditions and evaluated by the same observer at
the same time. The better system will produce an image in which
smaller contrasts and details are visible. This results in a shift of
the CD curve to the lower left part of the image. (See graph)
In the detail (vertical) direction, the diameter of the holes
increases step-wise and logarithmically from 0.3 to 8.0 mm.
The image shows 15 rows of spots with increasing detail
Phantom specifications
The CDRAD Phantomconsists of a Plexiglas

tablet with
cylindrical holes of exact diameter and depth (tolerances: 0.02 mm)
The radiographic image of the phantom provides information
about the imaging performance of the whole system
The image shows 225 squares: 15 rows and 15 columns
In each square, either one or two spots (the images of the holes)
are present. The first three rows show only one spot, while the
other rows have two identical spots; one in the middle and one
in a randomly chosen corner. (See graph)
The optical densities of the spots are higher than the uniform
background
In the contrast (horizontal) direction, the depth of the holes
increases logarithmically, and the image shows 15 columns of
spots with increasing contrast
Comparison of the performance of several observers is also
possible. The better performing observer produces a CD curve
more to the lower left part of the image

Introduction
J CAHO requires that x-ray exposure measurements be determined for commonly
used projections in all radiographic suites. In order to provide this information when
using automatic exposure control (AEC) or automatic brightness control (ABC)
systems, specially designed phantoms must be used. Attenuating material must be
used between the source and AEC or ABC detectors. Since these detectors are energy
dependent, measurement of skin entrance exposure requires the use of patient-
equivalent phantoms for meaningful results.
Applications
AAPM Report No. 31 recommends the
use of four special phantoms for use in
diagnostic x-rays. These acrylic and
aluminum phantoms are patient-
equivalent, and are specifically designed
to conform to the AAPM
recommendations.

Introduction
The NEMA Cardiology Phantom was designed by collaboration with SCA&I to
provide a cardiovascular fluoroscopy benchmark phantom. It is used to test systems
under conditions simulating normal clinical use for fluoroscopically-guided invasive
and interventional procedures.
The phantom test ensemble includes: tests for imaging-field geometry, spatial
resolution, low-contrast iodine detectability, working thickness range, motion
unsharpness and phantom entrance dose.
Applications
Test objects are positioned at the center of the NEMA Cardiology Phantom. This
simulates the location of clinically important organs. The NEMA Cardiology Phantom,
positioned with its center at the x-ray systems isocenter, simulates clinical imaging
geometry. Therefore, the geometric magnification of the test objects is similar to that of
the clinical target. The receptor blur, focal spot penumbra blur and x-ray scatter are also
similar in test and clinical conditions. The entrance surface of a thick phantom is closer
to the x-ray tube than the entrance surface of a thin phantom. This is an additional
reason why patient (phantom) dose increases with phantom thickness.
Visualized field size A plate is placed on the entrance surface of the image
receptor. The plate is fluorographed to determine the actual field of view (FOV).
Congruence of irradiated and visualized fields This test is not needed if the
shutters are fully seen in the FOV under test. (CAUTION: digitally synthesized
shutters may simulate this effect without actual beam collimation.)
Spatial resolution A standard bar pattern insert is included in the central test plate.
The test plate is placed with the bars at 45 to the video lines or digital image
matrix. This produces the smallest change in the moir pattern, resulting from a
small change in angle. See Figures 2 and 3.

Working thickness range The ability to image structures overlaid by bone or air. Systems with inadequate single-image latitude
are unable to do this in bright (air) or dark (bone) portions of the image. The NEMA Cardiology Phantom contains eight
cylinders composed of different heights of air, aluminum and plastic. These cylinders are calibrated for a total 20 cm phantom
thickness. A 50 mm deep air challenge target overlaps the four air cylinders. The bright side dynamic range is determined by
how many of these targets are seen. A 5 mm lead challenge target overlaps the four aluminum cylinders. The dark side dynamic
range is determined by counting these targets. See Figure 4.
Spatial resolution (cont)
Low contrast detectability Four sets of holes with
diameters of 4, 3, 2, and 1 mm are filled with elemental
iodine dispersed in epoxy. The relative areal concentration of
iodine in the four patterns is 20, 10, 5, 2.5 mg/cm
2
. The test
operator is required to identify the smallest visible pair of
targets in each pattern. See Figure 4.
Figure 4. Working Thickness
Range. Three examples of white
clipping and two examples of black

Visibility of moving structures A rotating spoke target
allows visual evaluation of motion unsharpness and the
effects of temporal averaging. The device contains five steel
wires of different diameters (0.022, 0.016, 0.012, 0.009 and
0.005 inches or 0.56, 0.41, 0.30, 0.23, 0.13 mm). Two lead
dots are used to evaluate lag and recursive filtering. Rotation
speed is 30 revolutions/min. The linear velocity of the outer
lead dot is 200 mm/sec. The rotating disk replaces the central
test plate at the isocenter. See Figure 5.
Figure 5. Motion target
Dosimetry dosimetry tools The NEMA Cardiology
Phantom entrance exposure rate is measured at a
standardized position in front of the entrance surface of the
phantom (25 mm). This position is considered an acceptable
choice for this particular benchmarking phantom. The
phantom can also be configured to generate the FDA
measuring point (30 cm in front of the image receptor). See
Figure 6.

dosimetry measurement

NEMA phantom.
In fluorograph A, the spatial resolution test plate and several of
the low contrast detectability targets are shown. Both lines
cross at the dot.
Fluorograph B shows both lines crossing at the dot. (The test
plates have been removed.)
The field size plate is placed on top of the phantom. A second plate with a centered radiopaque dot is placed in the base. The
imaging gantry is adjusted until the cross wires intersect the approximate center of the disk. See Figure 7.

Introduction
The Dental Head Phantom mimics an average adult male head in size, shape and
structure. The phantom includes larynx, trachea, sinus, nasal and mouth cavities. An
articulating lower jaw enables easy access to teeth and air cavities. The phantom is
made from tissue analogs for brain, bone, spinal cord, vertebral disks, tooth enamel
and soft tissues that mimic actual tissues within 1% for both CT and Therapy energy
ranges (50 keV to 25 MeV).
Applications
The dental head phantom is a very versitle solution for optimal dental education and
advanced training of radiologists, technologists and radiological physician assistants
in universities, schools and institutes.
Dosimetry is an essential element of patient protection. The dental head phantom
helps you calculate dosage for different organs and tissues and can be customized
according to the application.
Panoramic x-ray lms can be performed using the dental head phantom. The
phantom has two imbedded natural teeth and the tongue is removable.
50% of all dental practices use panoramic radiography and this phantom is perfect to
visualize the oral cavity.

Mamchex/AEC
Model 07-MCX
An intelligent meter that monitors
daily quality control and calibration
of mammographic x-ray machines
Separates x-ray machine from film
processing quality control
Convenient, fast, and accurate
assessment of the AEC Systems
performance
Introduction
The Mamchex/AEC separates x-ray machine from film processing quality control.
The x-ray machine output can be surveyed daily or at any time to tell whether the
machine is ready to make human exposures safely and diagnostically. The Mamchex
meter looks at the light output from the intensifying screen in the cassette (the same
light the film sees); and displays digitally whether any factor has caused the machine
x-ray beam to change since the last time it was checked. The Mamchex can detect
mammographic machine drift and/or beam change and can tell the operator whether
the machine should/should not be used.
The Mamchex intelligent meter uses a microcontroller to track the output of the machine
and displays a digital number (QC number) that can be compared to a calibrated output;
if the number changes significantly over the short or long term, the machine may need re-
calibration. If the digital number does not change but the image quality has changed, then
other components of the imaging chain should be investigated.
Applications
Technologists can use this meter at any time to indicate calibration status or
calibration drift.
The Mamchex is easy to operate:
1. Slip Mamchex into the Bucky, the same as the film/screen cassette, until it locks into
place.
2.Turn it on.
3.Push the reset button, wait till the LCD says Ready for Exposure.
4.Expose it.
5.Read the number and compare it to a calibration number. The number tells whether
the operator has a go or no go situation.

The American College of Radiology
recommends this type of product in
their quality assurance program
Meets MQSA requirements
The mammographic units automatic exposure control should
be capable of maintaining optical density within 0.15 OD as
the voltage is varied from 25 to 35 kVp, and as breast
thickness is varied from 2 to 8 cm for each technique. Test
images taken of uniform phantoms of varying thicknesses
should not differ by more than 0.30 OD from each other. These
tests should be carried out over the kVp range customarily
used by the mammography center.
The Phototimer Consistency Test Tool is available in two
materials: acrylic; and, for more accurate results, breast-tissue-
equivalent BR-12 material. Both are supplied in uniform 2.0
cm slabs to produce thicknesses of 2, 4, 6, and 8 cm.
* BR-12 is a designation (D.R. White, et al.) of certain epoxy resin formulations
which react to x-ray in the mammographic energy range (15 to 30 keV) in the
same manner as human tissue. The tissue-simulation properties for these slabs
are maximized at 20 keV (28 kVp ). The glandular equivalency of this material
is 45% in the mammographic range.

CDMAM Phantom
*
Nuclear Associates Model 18-227
Specifically developed to determine
if mammographic images are
indicating objects with very low
contrast and very small diameter
For full-field analog and digital units
Comparison of image quality with
various screen-film combinations
Evaluation of conventional, as well
as digital and stereotactic modalities
Determination of the optimum
exposure technique, e.g., by variation
of tube potential
Comparison of image quality at
various object thicknesses, by
variation of the amount of Plexiglas

at a fixed density
Introduction
The CDMAM (Contrast Detail
Mammography) Phantom was
developed to evaluate conventional
mammographic x-ray equipment,
film, and cassettes. However, with
the increase of digital imaging in
mammography, especially when
performing stereotactic breast needle
biopsies and preoperative needle
localizations, the phantom can aid in
achieving improved image quality,
processing, display quality, and speed
in these new modalities.
What makes the CDMAM
Phantom so special?
The CDMAM Phantom consists of an aluminum base with gold discs (99.99% pure gold)
of varying thicknesses and diameters, which is attached to a Plexiglas

cover. The 5 mm
thick Plexiglas cover (PMMA plate) has a 2 mm deep cavity which accommodates the
aluminum base with gold discs. The assembly (PMMA and aluminum) has a Plexiglas-
equivalent thickness of 10 mm, under standard mammography-exposure conditions.
The aluminum base is 0.05 mm thick Al 1050 (99.5% pure aluminum). The base has been
polished and anodized black. Precisely measured gold discs of varying thickness (range =
0.05 to 1.60 m) and diameter (range =0.10 to 3.20 m) have been attached to the base
by means of evaporization. Finally, the base has been airbrushed to protect the gold discs.
* Developed by M.A.O. Thijssen, Ph.D., K.R. Bijkerk, MSc. and J.M. Lindeyer,
BSc., Project: Quality Assurance in Mammography (QAMAM), Department of
Diagnostic Radiology, University Hospital, St. Radboud, Nijmegen, The
Netherlands.
The Gold Standard of Mammographic
Phantoms
The discs are arranged in 16 rows and 16 columns. Within a row, the
disc diameter is constant, with logarithmically increasing diameter.
The precision of the disc diameter and thickness makes the CDMAM
Phantom an ideal tool for conducting contrast-detail and other image
quality experiments.
A line pattern has been engraved onto the Plexiglas cover and treated
with paint containing aluminum. The x-ray image will show a number
of squares ordered in 16 columns and 16 rows, with the disc diameter
shown for each row, and the disc thickness for each column.
About the Gold Standard CDMAM Phantom
The CDMAM Phantom includes a set of four Plexiglas plates, which
are used for the simulation of different breast thicknesses. The plates
are 10 mm thick and the same dimensions as the phantom. The plates
are marked in one corner, for identification of the configuration of
Plexiglas and phantom in an x-ray image. The phantom and Plexiglas
plates match the standard mammography film size (18 x 24 cm).
Under standard mammography-exposure conditions (Mo-anode,
30 m Mo-filtration, 28 kVp), the phantom has a Plexiglas-equivalent
thickness of 10 mm.
The actual attenuation of the CDMAM Phantom depends on the
configuration of the phantom and Plexiglas plates. The effective
energy of the phantom plane will be higher when more Plexiglas is
added to the top and bottom of the phantom.
Using the CDMAM Phantom is easy
To make an x-ray image, the CDMAM Phantom should be positioned
on the bucky with the smallest disc diameters at the thorax side, in
combination with one or more Plexiglas plates. The markings on the
Plexiglas plates should be aligned at the thorax side of the bucky. On
digital stereotactic systems with smaller fields of view, specific
portions of the phantom can easily be imaged as well.
The density of the image has to be checked after the film has been
processed. In a series of CD images, all images should approximately
have the same densities in a reference-position on the film.

Introduction
With the increasing use of stereotactic breast
biopsy procedures, it is essential that
radiology healthcare providers maintain and
increase their needle biopsy skills. This
tissue-equivalent phantom is a MUST for
every mammography facility.
The automated stereotactic breast biopsy
procedure depends on several variables for
accurate needle placement. Thus, for patient
safety, this system must be properly
maintained and evaluated.
Applications
This versatile phantom was designed to assist
in training technologists and physicians in
the use of a stereotactic system, and for
verifying the proper operation of
mammographic stereotactic biopsy systems.
Because the phantom closely mimics
properties of the human breast, it is also an
ideal teaching tool and practice medium for
mammographic needle biopsy procedures. It
should also be used whenever a new system
is installed or repaired, to ensure accurate
needle placement.

Introduction
Suspect lesions discovered in x-ray mammography
must often be evaluated under ultrasound to aid
diagnosis and in some cases, use of MRI may be
indicated. This phantom is an ideal training device
because it can be imaged under three modalities and
was designed specifically for needle biopsy.
Applications
The Triple-Modality Biopsy Training Phantom is a
disposable phantom that was designed to closely
mimic the properties of the human breast, making it
an extremely useful accessory for training
technologists and physicians, as well as for verifying
the proper operation of a mammographic biopsy
system.
Training
With the increasing use of breast biopsy procedures, it
is essential that radiology healthcare providers
maintain and increase their needle biopsy skills. This
training phantom is a must for every mammography
facility.
Quality control
The breast biopsy procedure depends on several variables for accurate needle
placement. Thus, for patient safety, the system must be properly maintained and
evaluated. A comprehensive mammography quality control program must provide
assurances that all aspects of the mammography equipment are operating at optimum
levels. The Triple-Modality Biopsy Training Phantom is the ideal tool for such a
program. Additionally, the phantom can and should be used whenever a new system
is installed or repaired, to ensure accurate needle placement.
Research and development
This cost-effective phantom is also an excellent research and development/demonstration
tool for manufacturers of mammography equipment.

The fast, easy way to test image
quality on digital biopsy
mammography units and qualify
for ACR accreditation
Accepted by the ACR for use in its
Stereotactic Breast Biopsy
Accreditation Program
One exposure is all you need
Introduction
In the past, there was not an easy way to compare the image quality of conventional
and digital biopsy mammography units, because the field of view on the digital
system is typically much smaller than the 24 x 30 cm field of view on conventional
mammography units. In order to image the Mammographic Accreditation Phantom
specified by the American College of Radiology (ACR) on the biopsy units, the user
has to move the phantom to various positions in order to obtain four separate images,
to be sure all objects were imaged. This is a very inconvenient, time consuming task.
Applications
The small size of the phantom permits fast, easy comparison of conventional and digital
image quality, because you can attain an image of the entire unit in a single exposure. The
objects are some of the same ones found in the Mammographic Accreditation Phantom
specified by the ACR, so it makes comparison of the two imaging systems easy.
Features
The phantom contains test objects that
are similar to those found in the
Mammographic Accreditation
Phantom specified by the ACR
The extended top edge of the phantom
allows ease of positioning on
recumbent biopsy units
The phantoms small size allows it to

Introduction
The Contrast and Resolution
Mammography Phantom is
designed with an extended top
edge to aid the user in positioning
it on recumbent biopsy tables.
Applications
On digital mammography units,
this phantom can test the high
contrast spatial resolution of the
system with the results being
viewed on the monitor. The focal
spot high contrast resolution can
also be determined by placing a
conventional mammography
cassette behind the phantom and
making an appropriate exposure.
It is suggested that a resolution test pattern from 5-20 LP/mm be used to evaluate the
condition of the focal spot. Instead of making focal spot measurements which can be
ambiguous, an accurate determination of the x-ray tubes resolution ability can be
measured by using the optional Resolution Test Pattern (Model 07-555).
On conventional mammography units, the phantom can be used to meet the ACR
guidelines for testing focal spot resolution. The ACR suggests placing a resolution target
4.5 cm above the image receptor and imaging twice: once parallel to the anode-cathode
axis and once rotated 90 degrees. With two resolution targets, this can be achieved in a
single exposure. The grey scale step wedge can also be used to check the dynamic range
of the entire system, indicate processing problems, and variation in film emulsion.
With a single exposure you can:
Measure the contrast and dynamic
range of the imaging system
Easily measure the system resolution
of the focal spot length and width on
mammography units (with optional

Contrast Detail Phantom
for Mammography
Nuclear Associates Model 18-252
Introduction
The Contrast Detail Phantom for Mammography is designed to provide a means of
quantitatively testing and monitoring the total performance of an entire mammographic
imaging chain. Its small size, as well as the number and distribution of holes simulating
embedded objects, make this phantom particularly useful in evaluating digital spot
mammography systems. With 49 holes generating subtle contrast variations, the phantom
makes it possible to detect small changes in overall system performance.
The Contrast Detail Phantomfor Mammography contains a 7 x 7 matrix of objects. The
diameter of each row of objects decreases from0.169 to 0.007 inch. In each row, the subject
contrast decreases fromapproximately 6.6% to 0.41% at mammographic energies.
Applications
The Contrast Detail Phantom for Mammography is easy to useSimply place the
phantom on the image receptor surface in the same position as a breast. Position the x-ray
tube and compression device as in a craniocaudal examination. When using the phantom
on prone-position breast biopsy systems, use the rotating top plate of the phantom and the
compression device to secure the phantom against the image receptor. Choose the
appropriate kV and mAs factors (26 kV and 60 mAs works well on most systems), or
select automatic exposure control.
Optimized for digital imaging
Easy-to-use, compact and
lightweight
Closely simulates scattering
conditions of the breast
Rotatable support plate
accommodates prone-position x-ray
units. The plate can be returned to a

Spiral/Helical CT Lesion
Detectability Phantom
Model 76-409
Incorporates clinically-relevant
lesion shape (spherical) and size
Provides clinically-relevant absolute
HU values for soft tissue
Provides a clinically-relevant HU
differential (i.e. tumors have a
slightly lower HU than backround)
Introduction
The CT Lesion Detectability
Phantom is particularly useful to
physicians, CT technologists, and
medical physicists who design
scanning protocols for
abdominal, pelvic, and brain CT.
It allows users to test various
scanning protocols to verify that
small low contrast lesions will be
detected. This is the only way to
be sure that a CT scanner is
seeing tumors that are known
to be present. The use of this
phantom removes any doubt as to
the limit of low contrast spherical
lesion detectability for various
scan protocols.
Applications
The phantom is designed to permit complete testing of low contrast lesion detection
when various scan or image reconstruction parameters are varied. These include:
collimation, pitch, reconstructed field of view, reconstruction algorithm, z-axis
(patients long axis) interpolators, kVp, mA, and rotation time. This lesion
detectability testing can be applied to protocols designed for imaging of the liver,
spleen, pancreas, kidneys, and adrenal glands. It can also be used for mass detection
in the brain.
Disk with embedded targets
Specifications
Note: The CT Lesion Detectability Phantom
is a tissue-equivalent test object that consists
of an 18 cm diameter right circular cylinder
with a CT value of 50 HU at 120 kVp. Within
the phantom is an 18 cm diameter, 4 cm deep
right circular void in which a soft-tissue-
equivalent disk (containing low contrast
spheres) can be placed. The cylindrical void
is in a plane containing the z-axis of the
scanner. The soft-tissue-equivalent disk also
has a background CT value of 50 HU.
Embedded within the disk are three sets of
simulated spherical lesions. One set is 5 HU
below background, a second set is 10 HU
below background, and the last set is 20 HU
below background. Each set contains one
sphere each of the following diameters: 2.4,
3.2, 4.0, 4.8, 6.3 and 9.5 mm. These
diameters were chosen to encompass the full
range of clinically significant lesions. The
disk can also be placed at the end of the
phantom when axial scanning detectability
testing is desired.
Features

AAPM CT Performance
Phantom
Model 76-410-4130
Meets guidelines in AAPM Report
No. 1 for Performance Evaluation
and QC of CT Scanners
Single system measures nine
performance parameters
Introduction
The increasing use of computed tomography (CT) as a diagnostic tool creates the
need for an efficient means of evaluating the performance of the CT scanners now in
use. Recognizing this requirement, the American Association of Physicists in
Medicine established the AAPM Task Force on CT Scanner Phantoms. Its goals are
to define CT scanner performance and present practical methods of performance
testing through the utilization of special phantoms. This phantom design is based on
the guidelines presented in Report #1 of the Task Force and approved by the AAPM.
Applications
The modular AAPM CT Performance Phantom offers the CT user a single system
with which to measure nine performance parameters. This phantom permits the
routine standardization of alignment, beam width, spatial uniformity, linearity/
contrast, spatial resolution, linespread, noise, size independence, and absorbed dose.
All components of the phantom are housed in a compact, transparent tank which
holds the system together in the correct orientation.
The phantom consists of an 8.50 inch diameter acrylic tank containing a beam-width
insert, a spatial resolution and linespread block, a high-contrast insert, and a means
for inserting alignment pins and/or TLD holders. Additionally, a 0.25 inch thick
Teflon

band, positioned at the base of the tank and concentric to the 8 inch internal
diameter, simulates human bone. Attached to the base of the tank is a low-contrast
section with resealable cavities (from 1 to 0.125 inch diameter) which can be filled
with a diluted dextrose or other appropriate solution to provide a low-contrast media.
The optional external resolution and noise ring slides snugly over the outside
diameter of the tank, allowing whole-body scanner systems to be evaluated.
Features
This ONE phantom evaluates:
Noise
Spatial resolution
Sensitivity (low contrast resolution)
Absorbed dose
Size dependence
Contrast scale
Slice thickness
Alignment
Linearity

parameters of computed
tomography (CT) image
quality and radiation dose.
Its unique, compact design
allows for unparalleled
portability, easy set up and
reliable parameter
determinations. It is perfect
for use by physicists,
technologists and service
engineers.
Applications
The disc section consists of a 1 inch thick Lucite

disc with a 6 inch diameter. The six


large holes are for the placement of inserts for evaluation of CT number consistency and
evaluation of image resolution. The four small holes are for inserting an ion chamber at
different locations within the phantom. Lucite inserts are provided to fill the four small
holes, when necessary. The disc section is attached to a rectangular acrylic bar
containing a thin copper wire embedded along a central groove. This section of the
phantom is used to evaluate laser beam alignment and accuracy of slice thickness, slice
spacing, slice contiguity, and pilot scan to transverse (longitudinal) scan correspondence.
This is achieved by exposing a non-screen film (such as Flex Film Cassettes, listed
below) placed underneath the phantom, and making several cuts while the phantom is
advanced along the gantry in a pre-programmed manner.

provides specific details necessary to
confirm the integrity of both
conventional and spiral scanning. What
makes the phantom unique is that it
allows the user to visually evaluate all
test results in their image displays.
Applications
The phantom consists of five Lucite

plates of different sizes, all affixed to a flat


rectangular base. Specific hole patterns are drilled on each side of these plates.
When imaging, the holes within the x-ray field will appear in the phantom images.

Introduction
The innovative nested CT Dose
Phantom can be used with any
computed tomography (CT) system
designed to image pediatric and
adult head and body. Each phantom
segment can provide separate dose
information. When performing
dose prole measurements, the
dose phantoms allow the user to collect information for the maximum, minimum and
mid-range value of the nominal tomographic section thickness.
This essential phantom kit consists of three parts: an adult body phantom, an adult
head phantom that doubles as a pediatric body phantom and the new pediatric head
phantom, nested together for easy storage and convenient transport. (All are made of
solid acrylic with diameters of 32, 16 and 10 cm, respectively.) Each part contains four
probe holes around the perimeter, 90 apart and 1 cm from the edge and the pediatric
head (center insert) has one probe hole in its center. The inside diameter of the holes is
1.31 cm. Each part includes ve acrylic rods for plugging all the holes in the phantom.
A sturdy storage and carrying case with wheels and pull handle that holds all three
phantoms is included; as an option, a smaller case without wheels is available.

MRI Surface Coil Phantom
*
Nuclear Associates Model 76-904
Specifically designed for
comprehensive testing of surface
coils
Provides proper geometry not found
in conventional head or body
phantoms
The use of surface coils in Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI)
has become an important part of the clinical operations in most
MR facilities. Surface coils are preferred in some MR studies, in
part, because their use can minimize motion artifacts, obtain high
signal-to-noise ratio in the areas closer to the surface, and obtain
high resolution images of smaller areas of interest.
This phantom was specifically designed for acceptance testing and
routine QC of surface coils. It provides the proper geometry not
found in conventional head or body phantoms.
The phantom is constructed of non-magnetic Plexiglas

. It is
rectangular in shape, contains three inserts, and is designed to be
filled with an MRI signal-producing solution. The void between
the inserts provides a fully flooded area.

Introduction
The Multipurpose Tissue/Cyst
Ultrasound Phantom (Model 84-317)
helps provide both quantitative and
qualitative information on the
performance of all diagnostic
ultrasound imaging systems. When
used on a regular basis, it promotes
uniform system performance, better
patient data, and more productive
work schedules. Imaging equipment
can be evaluated for axial and lateral
resolution, vertical and horizontal
distance calibration and linearity, and
ring down.
This updated and improved phantom
is filled with Zerdine

, a solid-elastic, water-based polymer that exhibits echogenic


patterns similar to those encountered in human liver parenchyma. Unlike other
phantom materials, Zerdine is elastic and is not damaged by heavier scanning
pressures. It is also highly-resistant to damage by extreme temperatures.

Introduction
The Model 35040 Advanced Therapy Dosimeter (ATD) is a reference grade instrument
used to measure the charge and current from ion chambers in Radiation Therapy, and
provides bias voltage for all commonly used chambers. The ATD large clear display
offers direct readings of charge, current, time, and radiation units over a wide range.
The user can customize the display for basic use or for specialized applications such
as brachytherapy. The Advanced Therapy Dosimeter exceeds the recommendations
of calibration laboratories for leakage, linearity, and stability by a wide margin. This
instrument raises the standard of Radiation Therapy measurements.
Applications
Radiation Therapy requires great accuracy in the measurement of dose and dose rate
values associated with linear accelerators and radioactive sources. The Model 35040
Advanced Therapy Dosimeter provides the long-term stability and accuracy demanded
for calibrations, quality assurance programs, and protocols in Radiation Therapy. A
unique electrometer design provides more accuracy than high meg resistor or capacitor
feedback electrometers.
The Advanced Therapy Dosimeter is fully stable within ve minutes, a fraction of
the time of conventional dosimeters. The exibility of the instrument optimizes user
efciency and saves time. In battery operation or using AC Line, the ATD measures dose
and effective exposure time in a single exposure, thus eliminating the need for multiple
exposures for
60
Co and brachytherapy measurements. Front panel controls select ion
chamber calibration factors, facilitate entry of temperature and pressure values for air
density correction, allow bias voltage selection, threshold level, timer control, and choice
of display screens. The user-customized display screens can simultaneously show dose,
exposure time, dose rate, effective exposure time, average current/rate, accumulated
charge/dose, bias voltage, leakage, and other important information that ensures the
validity of the instrument.
The customization software allows design of 16 screens that display conditions,
parameters, values and text. Up to 32 chamber factors, 11 bias voltages can be
programmed. It is PC compatible and connects via a RS-232 cable.

TEL-ALIGN

Teletherapy
Alignment Gauge
*
Model 37-001
Introduction
Accuracy begins with beam alignment. It is impossible to deliver the carefully
calculated plan if the beam position is not verified. TEL-ALIGN verifies the
coincidence of the light and radiation fields and checks the isocenter variation and
the optical back pointer when the gantry is rotated 90.
Applications
TEL-ALIGN consists of a rectangular plastic base with a removable vertical scale.
The top surface of the base contains lead markers that form a square (10 x 10 cm)
for visualization on film. A crosshair in the center of the square lines up with two
additional sets of crosshairs, one on each outer edge of the base.
After the machine field size (10 x 10 cm) has been set, the table height should be
adjusted until the base surface is at the isocenter distance. The collimator rotation
angle is set at 0. When positioned properly, the edges of the light field should
coincide with the inscribed square. The field center should intersect the center
crosshair, and the side lights should agree with the corresponding crosshairs at the
edges of the base.
The vertical scale is placed on the base to check the optical distance indicator, or a
film can be placed under the base to check the light field versus the radiation field.
By rotating the gantry angle at 90, the isocenter variation and optical back pointer
are also checked. If adjustment of machine geometry is needed, it can be done
quickly and easily, with the TEL-ALIGN Teletherapy Alignment Gauge
(Model 37-001) in place.
* Designed and developed by the Medical Physics Department, Memorial Sloan Kettering Hospital, New
York, NY 10021.

Optical distance indicator
(over a 15 cm range)
Collimator and central crosshair
Head rotation and pitch

GARD

Model 37-013
Introduction
The GARD* (geometric accuracy
radiotherapy device) is designed to fit
into the shadow tray of the therapy
machine, providing a fixed reference
point for all measurements. This helps to
eliminate errors associated with using
independent devices for each geometric
parameter.
Applications
Gantry and collimator angle indicators
By using a high-precision goniometer,
indicators of gantry and collimator angle
can be visually verified. The goniometer
is mounted so that it can check any
collimator angle.
* Designed by A. Kalend, Ph.D., and L. Reinstein, Ph.D., State University of New York at Stony Brook.
Optical distance indicator laser
alignment
An acrylic tray with a distance scale is
supplied with GARD. Simply slide the
tray into the accessory mount of GARD
and turn on the machine distance
indicator. The distance markers from the
machine will be visible on GARDs
distance indicator, and should coincide.
The sides of GARD have white acrylic
plates on which black vertical and
horizontal lines have been engraved.
When aligned, the field lasers should
coincide with the etched black lines.
Light and radiation field coincidence
The included film cassette (8 x 10 inch)
fits the accessory mount of GARD. The
top is etched with markings of four field
sizes. Field size and crosshair position
accuracy, as well as light and radiation
field coincidence, can be verified.

Pictured Model 37-705-7777 with optional diodes
Two systems in one
VeriDose PDMQC is a five-channel
patient dose monitor and a linear
accelerator quality control device
Measures beam constancy, flatness,
and symmetry
Optional diodes available in a
variety of photon energy ranges,
polarity, and electrons
Introduction
Our innovation and leading-edge technology combines the powerful performance
capabilities of patient dose monitoring and linear accelerator quality control into one
compact, easy-to-use product.
We give you this powerful combination of technology and versatility for a lower
price than you would expect to pay for one unit alone.
Applications
Use VeriDose PDMQC as a patient dose monitor and when needed, just simply plug
in the VeriDose QC Module and VeriDose PDMQC is transformed into a precision
linear accelerator quality control device.
Two radiation oncology products in one:
Its a linear accelerator quality control device (it measures beam constancy, which
includes flatness and symmetry).
Its a five-channel patient dose monitoring system that records patient dose
verification data from actual radiation measurements made on the patient during
treatment.
Features
Accuracy
Measurements and updates are
provided in real time, accurate to
within 1% or better
Automatically adjusts the proper offset
voltage for each detector, resulting in
up to ten times less drift than other
products
Time-savings
VeriDose PDMQC stores up to 25
separate calibration sets. (A calibration
set can be created for up to five diodes
at a time.) As a result, the frequency of
calibrations you do is significantly
reduced. Setup time and error potential
are also dramatically reduced, leaving
more time for patient treatment
Documentation
When interfaced with a standard
printer, you can print:
- Patient treatment dose reports
- Date and time of the procedure
- Diode detector group and serial
number
In vivo measurements with the
VeriDose PDMQC as a patient dose
monitor are reimbursable under CPT-4

Introduction
The MOSFET 20 patient dose verification system is a high-performance, cost-
effective dosimetry system. It combines pinpoint accuracy with the convenience of
instant dose readout. MOSFET dosimeters, with an active area of less than 0.04 mm
2
do not attenuate the beam and make pinpoint dose measurement a reality. The same
MOSFET is suitable for both photons and electrons in all radiotherapy and radiology
applications. There is no need to purchase separate dosimeters for various energies.
MOSFET dosimeters are also dose-rate and temperature independent.
Applications
In addition to regular patient dose verification and QA applications, these isotropic
dosimeters are used in IMRT, brachytherapy, and intracavitary dosimetry. The high
performance system is expandable from a standard configuration of 1-5 dosimeters
to a maximum of 20. Dose readings are available in user-selected units, including
cGy, mV, or R. Battery backup preserves up to 20 calibration factors, time and date
settings after power-down.
The standard MOSFET 20 system includes a self-contained reader, an external bias
supply with five dosimeter ports, a power adapter, five MOSFET dosimeters, and
connecting cables. TABULA Dose Reporter Software provides a user-friendly
Graphic User Interface (GUI) to the system using Windows

95, 98, 2000, and NT

platforms. It expands the system by giving the medical physicist an effective tool to
plan, execute, and record patient dose measurement in one operation. The report
generated by TABULA contains all the data input by the user on the patient,
radiation machine, MOSFET system, dosimeter sites (graphical and descriptive),
target doses, measured doses, deviation between measured and target doses,
calibration and correction factors, and comments added by the user.

TRACKER

Model 90100
Introduction
The TRACKER Therapy Beam Evaluation System, Model 90100, is a quality
assurance system that measures high energy accelerators and
60
Co dose and dose rate,
enabling user calculation of beam constancy, flatness, and symmetry. The system
consists of the Model 35300A detector and Model 35360A display.
The Model 35300A TRACKER detector array incorporates four orthogonally-placed
ion chambers on a 10 cm radius from a fifth isocentrally-located ion chamber
allowing ratio-to-center dose measurement. Each ion chamber, which is identical to
the others and vented to the atmosphere, is a circular, parallel-plate configuration and
is fully guarded for low leakage. The entrance surface indicates ion chamber
locations for alignment with a therapy beam light field system. The Model 35360A
TRACKER display contains five electrometers and a microprocessor-controlled,
4-line by 20-character, vacuum fluorescent display (VFD) that provides excellent
readability of dose and dose rate measurements in virtually any lighting condition.
Applications
The TRACKER Therapy Beam Evaluation System performs quality assurance tests
for linear accelerators and
60
Co. The systems quick setup and operational ease make
it ideal for daily checks of beam constancy, symmetry, and flatness.
A five-channel electrometer enables measurement of dose or dose rate in either
absolute or ratio-to-center. Dose measurement values may be displayed in units of R,
rad, Sv, or Gy. Dose rate measurement values may be displayed in units of R/min,
rad/min, Sv/min, or Gy/min.
The TRACKER System may be operated from either AC line power or from its high
capacity internal battery. The battery is charged automatically when the unit is
connected to AC line power, either during use or when idle.
Consulting physicists and service engineers will appreciate the TRACKER Systems
portability. An optional carrying case eases transport and storage. Other optional
accessories include buildup plates and a buildup retaining hardware kit.

Introduction
The THEBES II*
(THErapy Beam
Evaluation System)
consists of a linear
ion chamber array,
electrometer,
communicator,
THEBES II Contour
Manager software,
wall mount power
supply,
interconnecting cable,
and carrying case. An
acrylic base plate that
holds the ion chamber
array and build up
plates are also
provided. The linear
ion chamber array is
permanently
connected to the electrometer by a 1.5 m shielded multiconductor cable to eliminate
radiation damage to the electrometer.
The THEBES II linear ion chamber array is a waterproof, linear array of 47 ion
chambers on 0.5 cm centers. The total active length of the array is 23.42 cm.
The THEBES II communicator provides power and the communication interface for
the THEBES II electrometer.
THEBES II Contour Manager Software is a Windows based application that
acquires beam contour data from the detector array and displays it graphically.
Applications
The THEBES II is used to perform linear accelerator quality
assurance using physicist-preferred air ion chamber technology for
dose measurement, avoiding the ion transport issue of the
competing liquid chamber technology and radiation damage issues
of diode detectors. The detector array consists of 47 waterproof air
ion chambers in a linear array. Two detector arrays are being
offered: Model 7020 with 47 ion chambers on a 0.5 cm pitch
(23.42 cm total active length) and Model 7040 with 47 ion
chambers on a 1 cm pitch (46.88 cm total active length).
The software performs beam contour analysis such as flatness and
symmetry. Beam contour data is saved in an Access compatible
database, facilitating daily, weekly, and yearly checks, aiding in
following the guidelines in TG-40 and TG-51.

Precision Isocentric QC
Beam-Checker II
Model 37-731
This precision quality control tool is ideal for daily, weekly and monthly quality
control assessments of all mechanical and geometrical parameters of linear
accelerators or teletherapy units.
The Precision Isocentric Beam Checker II consists of a large opaque acrylic screen
backed by a secondary plate, both supported by two uprights. The screen is inscribed
with lines precisely defining the corners, edges and center of the screens 10 x 10 cm
and 20 x 20 cm fields. Intersecting center lines are inscribed with short lines spaced
1 cm apart. The screen can rotate about its axis in increments of 45. Tungsten
markers of 2 mm in diameter are embedded in the center and corners of the fields.
A 10 x 12 inch ready-pack film can be sandwiched between the two plates. When
exposed, the tungsten markers project a sharp image on the film, thus eliminating the
inaccuracy and need to prick holes into the film.
The devices acrylic base-plate has an attached bubble level and non-slip leveling
legs that allow it to be quickly and conveniently set up for use.

Same dimensions as the Markus

Suitable for relative and absolute

Very thin entrance window
The chamber is waterproof when
used with protective cap
The 0.02 cc Advanced Markus Chamber is our newest development in plane-parallel
electron ion chambers. This chamber combines the advantages of both Roos and
Markus chamber types into one truly exceptional plane-parallel electron chamber.
Developed for relative and absolute electron dosimetry in water or solid type
phantoms, the advanced design of this chamber makes it possible to perform absolute
electron dosimetry without perturbation effects.
This chamber is designed in strict accordance with the recommendations of IEC
60731 and it is waterproof. Since the outer shape is identical to that of the Markus
chamber, all existing Markus chamber phantom plates and adapters can be used with
the Advanced Markus chamber. The small sensitive volume makes this chamber
ideal for dose distribution measurements in a water phantom, giving a good spatial
resolution. An improved design of the guard ring reduces the inuence of scattered
radiation from the housing, and makes it possible to perform absolute electron
dosimetry without perturbation effects. The chamber features a at energy response
within the nominal useful range from 2 to 45 MeV. The membrane material is
polyethylene of
0.03 mm thickness. The Advanced Markus chamber comes with a protective acrylic
cover 0.87 mm thick (1 mm water equivalence) for use in water. In addition, the
chamber includes a 3.4 ft (1.05 m) cable and BNC Triax connector. Air density
correction is required for each measurement. A radioactive check device is available
as an option.
Note: The Advanced Markus chamber was developed in cooperation with Prof. Rosenow,
Gttingen University, Germany IEC 60731: Medical electrical equipment - Dosimeters
with ionization chambers as used in radiotherapy.

ionization chamber type (Model 30-344) is designed for
measurements in the useful beam of high energy photon and electron elds. The
chamber is waterproof and is used mainly for relative measurements in a water
phantom or in an air scanner. The measuring volume is approximately spherical
resulting in a at energy response over an angle of 160 and a uniform spatial
resolution, in all three axes, during measurements in a phantom. The chamber
includes a 4.3 ft (1.3 m) cable, BNC Triax connector, PMMA buildup cap, and a
short (36 mm) rigid stem for easy mounting.
Suitable for use in water phantoms
or solid state phantoms
Measuring volume is fully vented via
the connector
Fully guarded up to measuring

Introduction
The Model 74-001 IMRT phantom is designed to address the complex issues
surrounding commissioning and comparison of treatment planning systems and
verication of individual patient plans and delivery.
The phantom is circular in shape, approximates the size of an average patient, and
is manufactured from unique proprietary materials that faithfully mimic bone and
water within 1% from 50 keV to 25 MeV. This enables thorough analysis of both the
treatment planning and delivery systems.
Tissue equivalent interchangeable rod inserts for ionization chambers allow for
point dose measurements in multiple planes in the phantom and lm calibration. The
phantom also supports lm dosimetry with not only standard radiographic lms but
also GAFCHROMIC

media. Optional inserts are available to support a variety of


other detectors including TLDs, MOSFET, and diodes.

The Model 74-001 accommodates one
Ready Pack 10 x 12 inch lm in
transverse orientation, two radiochromic
or radiographic 10 x 10 cm lms in
transverse orientation and/or a stack of
thirteen radiochromic lms pre-cut to 63.5
x 63.5 mm* in three different orientations.
The Model 74-001 includes ve different
Electron Density reference plugs that
can be interchanged in ve separate
locations within the phantom. The surface
of the phantom is etched with grooves to
ensure proper orientation of the CT slices
and accurate lm to plan registration.

CT Simulation Phantom
Nuclear Associates Model 76-417
For quality control of CT simulators
and treatment planning systems
capable of generating digitally
reconstructed radiographs
Designed for use with spiral CT
scanners and may be used with
conventional scanners
Simplifies quality control for the
radiology physicist and radiation
oncology physicist
Verifies the accuracy of the digitally
reconstructed radiograph (DRR)
reconstruction for 3D treatment
planning systems
Introduction
A CT simulator consists of a dedicated,
fast CT scanner (often a spiral scanner), a
virtual simulator (a set of computer
software), and a laser marking device to
mark the center of target volume.
Therefore, methods of designing and
implementing quality control procedures
must include quality control on each
segment of the process. Accuracy of table
movements and lasers should also be
checked to be within 1 millimeter
accuracy.
Quality control of a virtual simulator is a
very complex issue and difficult to verify,
due to the nature of software quality. Since
geometrical planning is the core of CT
simulation, periodic quality control is
essential for maintaining optimum image
quality and patient care. Hence, the quality
control of a virtual simulator consists of
testing every segment of the software for
possible flaws. A detailed description of
such a process can be found in A Practical
Guide to CT Simulation.
1,2
The basic
features which must be checked are
reconstruction registration error (RRE), and
geometrical accuracy in gantry, collimator
and table simulations. The test should also
include imaging parameters such as low
contrast resolution and high contrast
detectability of a DRR.
Applications
Digitally reconstructed radiographs produced
from a commercial CT simulator have been
evaluated using this phantom which consists
of a 15 cm high-density polystyrene cubic
block. Polystyrene was chosen due to the
similarities in electron and physical densities
between it and water, while its dimensions
were chosen as a compromise between the
need to design a compact and portable
phantom and the desire to represent a typical
anatomical scan volume. In this instance, the
anatomical volume most representative of the
phantom can be considered as the head, the
neck and the brain.
The phantom contains four test patterns
engraved into three of its six faces. The four
patterns are designed to measure low and
high contrast resolution, modulation transfer
function, ray line divergence accuracy, and
spatial linearity of the digitally reconstructed
radiograph.
The CT Simulation Phantom tests all quality control
parameters that can affect patient treatment,
including RRE, magnification, image quality, and
more

Electron Density Phantom
Model 76-462
Introduction
The Electron Density Phantom (Model 76-462) is used in CT (computed tomography) treatment planning. The accuracy of
radiation oncology treatment planning systems is heavily dependent upon precise CT analysis of the patient anatomy which is to be
irradiated.
Physicists performing treatment planning need accurate tools to evaluate CT scan data, correct for inhomogeneities and to
document the relationship between CT number and tissue electron density. The Electron Density Phantom is designed to meet this
requirement.

with precise spherical shape - 16 cm
diameter
Displacement of maximum dose from
center of sphere shows degree of
accuracy and stability of the system
Checks the dose-calculation
algorithm for a homogeneous sphere
Dosimetry in the Spherical Phantom*
When the center of the sphere is used as the target for testing the treatment unit, it
must indicate the relationship between the point of maximum dose and the target.
These should, closely coincide for an accurate system.
A three-dimensional dosimetry cylinder at the center of the sphere measures both the
deviation of the maximum dose from the target and the gradient of the dose along the
three orthogonal axes of the sphere.
The TLD dosimetric cylinder is a stack of
dry-water disks of 44 mm in diameter. Seven
of the disks have concentric rings of holes for
TLD rods, 1 mm in diameter and 3 mm long.
Disk #4 is in the central plane of the cylinder.
A smaller target disk is at the center of this
disk. It has a Hounsfield number of about
130 for visibility in a CT scan.
The disks are assembled tightly by two nylon
rods and round, blind nuts, which locate the
cylinder precisely, linearly and angularly, in
both sphere and head.
* The Sphere was designed in conjuction with Timothy D. Solberg, Ph.D., Co-director of the University
of California at Los Angeles (UCLA) Radiosurgery Program.

The Film Dosimetric Cylinder
This is an optional
cylinder, interchangeable
with the TLD cylinder. It
is built up of 11 film disks
and 12 dry-water disks
with the same nylon
assembly rods and blind
nuts.
A simple fixture is supplied so the user can punch the film
disks from film sheets.
Standard Cone
This is a dry-water cone,
which fits precisely in a
recess in the sphere. It
accepts the dosimetric
cylinder (TLD or film).
It houses the dosimetric
cylinder at the center of
the sphere.
Optional Cone
This is molded to locate the measuring volume of an ion
chamber at the center of the / sphere. This cone is custom-
molded to suit the particular ion chamber specified by the
customer.
Dosimetry in the Head
Phantom
Provisions are made for installation of
the dosimetric cylinder at two locations
in the cranium. One is on the CC axis of
the head close to the apex. The other is
near one side of the head at about ear
level. Both cylinders are perpendicular
to the transverse planes of the head.
Since the dose at only one location is to
be measured at a time, the other location
is filled with a dry-water cylinder with
no dosimetric provisions. The target can
be located uniquely by an initial CT scan.

Photon emission computed tomography (PET/SPECT) systems, like any imaging
apparatus, require periodic performance testing. This modular phantom is designed to
provide the data for such evaluations. It offers a single system for measuring resolution,
linearity and uniformity.
All components of the phantom fit into an optional, clear acrylic source tank which can
be filled with a
99m
Tc-and-water solution similar to that used for routine flood
uniformity testing.
Also Available, an optional set of three inserts includes two for resolution (one with
cold lesions in a hot field and one with hot lesions in a cold field) and one for
linearity/uniformity measurements. The visibility of all lesions can be varied by
adjusting the concentration of radioisotope in the tank.

Computerized
Dynamic Line Phantom
Model 76-838
A breakthrough in gamma camera
quality control
Makes current flood/phantom QC
testing of gamma camera systems
old-fashioned
Eliminates the need for most
conventional phantoms
Greatly reduces personnel exposure
during QC testing
Features
Programmed to perform nine
quality control tests, including:
Parallel Lines Equally Spaced (PLES)
Flood Field
Modulation Transfer Function
Variable Contrast
Resolution (hot and cold lines)
Dynamic Range
Linearity
Homogeneous Field at two different
fields of view (500 x 500 mm and 300
x 500 mm)
The Computerized Dynamic Line
Phantom will provide a true and
accurate flood uniformity test for
gamma cameras, a necessity in
SPECT imaging.
This phantom uses the principle of a
thin line source transversing the
camera. Using microprocessor
technology, it can simulate a number
of different phantoms. It can also
provide direct measurement of the
modulation transfer function, evaluate
collimator operation and check the
complete imaging system: camera,
interface, processing, display.
The computerized Dynamic Line Phantom consists of a long, slender line source on a movable
source holder. A microprocessor generates a sequence of pulses which drives a stepping motor
that moves the source holder across the phantom. The line source can be filled with any
isotope, and tests can also be accomplished using gases such as krypton or xenon.
Because the radiation intensity is inversely proportional to the velocity of the line source,
different test patterns can be generated by different pulse sequences. Conventional phantoms
such as flood, quadrant bar, PLES, orthogonal hole, flood sources, Hine-Duley, BRH test
patterns, and others, have been incorporated into the Computerized Dynamic Line Phantom
which is preprogrammed to perform nine quality control tests.
The phantom will significantly reduce the amount of time now being spent performing QC
testing. It will provide fast, accurate, cost-effective results. And since the radioactive material
is concentrated into a thin line (as compared to the large surface of a conventional flood
source or phantom), exposure to personnel is dramatically reduced.

Dual-Source Scatter Phantom
Model 76-840
For deadtime measurements
Simulates in-vivo scatter conditions
needed to measure gamma camera
deadtime
Deadtime is a time interval during which
a radiation counting instrument that is
processing incident radiation is
insensitive to additional radiation. At
higher count rates, losses caused by
deadtime limitations degrade quantitative
data. Absolute count-rate accuracy
requires mathematical corrections for
deadtime losses.
1
Under clinical conditions, the deadtime
of a scintillation camera is a function of
radiation scatter within the source and its
surroundings. Therefore, a scatter
phantom which simulates in-vivo
forward and backscatter characteristics
of
99m
Tc gamma rays is required for the
extrinsic measurement of a scintillation
cameras deadtime. The Dual-Source
Scatter Phantom produces a spectrum

standards measurements*
For measuring intrinsic spatial resolution and linearity per NEMA standards
Follows NEMA specications
Fits most scintillation cameras
Introduction
The National Electrical Manufacturers Association (NEMA) has developed
standards for making performance measurements of scintillation cameras, in order
to provide a uniform criterion for measuring and reporting the parameters by which
a manufacturer may specify a device. Our test pattern follows these specications
for checking a cameras intrinsic spatial resolution and linearity according to NEMA
protocol.
Applications
The test pattern consists of a 0.13 inch thick lead sheet, 22 inch square, sandwiched
in protective plastic. A series of parallel 1 mm wide slits in the lead, 3 cm (center-
to-center) apart, are arranged so that the ends of the slits form an 18 inch diameter
circle, large enough to be compatible with most gamma cameras. The 0.125 inch
lead thickness completely shields the areas between the slits from the 140 keV
photons from
99m
Tc.
This test pattern is used with two limiting rings with outside diameters of at least
18 inch and with inside diameters equal to the Useful Field of View (UFOV) and the
Central Field of View (CFOV; 75% of the UFOV diameter) of the camera. The rings
are not included, but can be constructed using our Lead-Vinyl.

Introduction
Routine quality control tests are required to show that a nuclear imaging
gamma camera is operating within the manufacturers design specications.
Therefore, it is recommended that spatial linearity and spatial resolution
testing be performed weekly on each gamma camera in an active nuclear
medicine clinic.
Typically, extrinsic testing (collimator in place) of the cameras linearity and
resolution is tested with one of three types of transmission test patterns: a
four-frequency, equal-spaced bar pattern, usually referred to as a 90 bar
phantom, a single-frequency parallel-line equal-space (PLES) test pattern,
or a single-frequency orthogonal hole test pattern. Unfortunately, none of
these test patterns can quickly and easily provide all of the information you
need, but the UB Gamma Camera Test Pattern can.
You need the UB Gamma Camera Test Pattern because:
The UB Gamma Camera Test Pattern provides all of the benets of a 90
bar phantom, with an important added benet: The uniquely-designed UB
Gamma Camera Test Pattern requires that only one image per detector head
be acquired in order to equally test all quadrants of the gamma camera for
visual evaluation of spatial resolution and spatial linearity during quality
control testing. Because only one image is required, quality control testing
time can be reduced to approximately one quarter of the time typically
required. Its versatility also makes it superior to PLES and orthogonal hole
test patterns.
Applications
The patterns shadows are used to evaluate the
cameras spatial resolution (the ability to see
small objects) and spatial linearity (the ability to
correctly position image data).
Specications
The UB Gamma Camera Test Pattern consists of
four frequencies of parallel-line equally-spaced
bars (0.25, 0.19, 0.16, and 0.1 inch) arranged
in an L-shaped conguration in each of its
quadrants. Each of the four sets of equally-spaced
parallel lines is precisely machined onto a 20 x 20
x 0.38 inch Lexan

plastic sheet. The machined


line sets are lled (cast) with Cerrobend

a high
atomic numbered, high-density metal alloy. This
alloy is used to attenuate gamma radiation when
the pattern is placed between the gamma camera
detector and a radioactive point or ood source.
Dimensions 20 x 20 x 0.38 in (50.8 x 50.8 x 0.965 cm)
Weight 24 lb (11 kg)
Available model(s)
76-890 UB Gamma Camera Test Pattern
