CatPhan 500 Complete Characterization of Multi Slice Imaging Protocols

The CatPhan phantom allows for complete characterization of multi slice imaging protocols ensuring ideal imaging performance for axial and spiral CT scanners.

The Catphan® 500 provides a comprehensive set of measurements to measure performance of your CT scanner’s sensitometry, uniformity, geometric and low-contrast sensitivity using 4 modules in 20cm diameter.

• Slice Geometry at opposed 23 degree wire ramps to verify phantom position patient alignment, and scanner table incrementation.
• Sensitometry (Teflon, acrylic, LDPE, air) to measure CT number linearity.
• High resolution line pairs for MTF curve characterization
• Low contrast lengths (3,5,7,9mm) and Uniformity of CT numbers ranging from 5H – 18H.
