Additional notes

The Flat Field Phantom is used in X-Ray, Computed Tomography (CT), Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) and many other Digital Imaging (DI) machines. It is used in the digital radiation room for the routine inspections for medical diagnostic equipment. It routinely checks the optimum imaging performance and appropriate radiation dose. Phantoms are special objects of imaging equipment that are often used for calibration and testing purposes. In radiology, phantoms are utilized to estimate radiation dose delivered to patients and evaluate the quality of imaging systems. They can also be used to conduct physics experiments. Hence, the material of the phantoms should closely scan the human tissue, in particular the radiological characteristics of the material must be similar to that of the tissue. The phantom is a sample material which is used to check the machines during experiments before using with patients to avoid risk. It is also used for the medical practitioners to get trained with the scanners and acquire knowledge. It is made of high quality materials and ensured good performance. The product is free from dust, burrs, sharp edges, surface blemishes, sink and flash marks.
