Description

ECT Phantom for PET and SPECT

The Jaszczak SPECT Phantom provides consistent performance information for any SPECT or PET system. Multiple performance characteristics of camera-based SPECT systems are evaluated from a single scan of the phantom.

On-axis and off-axis transverse line spread function may be easily measured without removing the cover plate. Measurements of full-width-half (or tenth) maximum can be readily determined, either in air or in water.

The phantom is used for:

System performance valuation of: Collimator, Artifacts, Calibration, and Reconstruction Parameters
Acceptance testing
Routine quality assurance and control
Evaluation of center-of-rotation error
Evaluation of non-uniformity artifact
Evaluation of changes of radius-of-rotation on spatial resolution
Evaluation of reconstruction filters on spatial resolution
Evaluation of attenuation and scatter compensation
Single slice volume sensitivity
Total system volume sensitivity
Lesion detectability

SPECT Phantoms are available in two models. The Deluxe Phantom is used for high resolution cameras. The Standard Phantom is used for lower resolution cameras.
