Head Phantom with Cervical Spine
SPECIALLY DESIGNED TEACHING & TRAINING AID FOR RADIOLOGICAL TECHNOLOGISTS
NEW! Inclusive skin tones, from light to dark complexion, available at no additional cost
Available in opaque or transparent, with or without cervical spine, RSD’s Head Phantom allows for tremendous flexibility with teaching and training. With the anatomy and radio fidelity of RSD’s Take-Apart Pixy, our Head Phantom represents an average male 5 ft. 9 in. tall (175 cm), with a weight of 162 lbs (74 kg). It is rugged, easily transported, and shatter-proof.
RSD’s Body Sections do not replace simple geometric phantoms that are used to evaluate individual characteristics of an imaging system. Instead, they provide comprehensive evaluation of the imaging system and imaging techniques under realistic conditions.
