Precision Resolution Grey Scale Phantom, Gammex 405GSX LE

Precision Resolution Grey Scale Phantom

Gammex 405GSX LE

Product Overview

The phantom is designed to work with high resolution ultrasound systems. 

The 405GSX LE incorporates the latest Gammex Tissue Mimicking gel technology to provide a smoother background texture than what is provided by conventional tissue mimicking gels.  The phantom contains all of the quality indicators for performing a wide range of evaluations.  Grey scale targets are included in the phantom.

The convertible water dam permits easy changeover for its use or non-use.

Benefits

  • Scanning of phantom using normal control setting ensures that the performance measured closely approximates the scanner's clinical performance.
  • Permits full monitoring of the ultrasound system including:
    • evaluation of axial resolution 
    • evaluation of lateral resolution,
    • dead zones cyst imaging
    • vertical and horizontal distance accuracy
    • image uniformity
  • Grey scale targets test the resolution of high-performance scanners
  • Guides to assist in alignment of the transducer(s)
  • The ability to easily convert back and forth from the use of the water dam
  • Compact design
  • Economical

Features

  • The phantom utilizes the unique Tissue Mimicking gel of Gammex
  • Combination of anechoic cyst, grey scale and pin targets to permit a wide range of testing.
  • Convertible water dam
  • Reference markers within the phantom permits exact alignment of transducer each time testing is performed
  • Measure to depths of up to 16 cm 
  • Varying sizes and depths of each type of target 

Warranty

  • Comes with 1 year Warranty
  • Extended Warranty plans are available.
