Healthy & Diseased Tissue Testing

• Background attenuations simulate healthy and diseased tissue in a side-by-side configuration to aid characterizing pathological tissue structures

• Evaluation of high resolution ultrasound systems

• Testing over a wide range of frequencies

The Sono406 Phantom supports quality control testing over a wide range of frequencies to provide a comprehensive view of the scanner image quality range. Meet or exceed ACR, AIUM, EFSUMB, IAC, IEC, IPEM, and WHO QA guidance/standards. Target depths of the phantom extend to 16 cm, offering greater scanner and transducer performance testing capability and electronic caliper measurement. Pin targets enable testing high frequency transducers that are designed to image the first few centimeters of tissue.

Performance measures include:

• Image uniformity

• Artifact surveys

• Lateral resolution

• Horizontal and vertical distance

• Depth of penetration

• Signal-to-noise ratio

• Anechoic and echogenic mass resolution
