QCT의 골밀도 측정용 시뮬레이션 팬텀 / 소프트웨어 입니다.

The CIRS CT Model 004 Simulator for Bone Mineral Analysis is designed to take into account all the known sources of variance affecting the measurement of density in the vertebral area
by simulating the average patient’s anatomy in terms of shape and density by using materials essentially equivalent to human tissues as far as X-ray interactions are concerned, including age-related variations in vertebral composition.
The design of the system permits reduction of all sources of error within acceptable limits. Careful and precise manufacturing and quality controls insure that all phantoms are identical
in order to create a general and uniform standard applicable to all scanners. The basic principle of operation is to sufficiently simulate the patient’s anatomy, and then to scan the patient and the phantom in succession with identical technical factors.
The Model 004 works with all CT Scanners and permits serial examinations of the patient irrespective of scanner use. Data interpretation and analysis can be performed “off line” to eliminate unnecessary scanner time.

FEATURES
• Accurately simulates the size, shape and CT density of human tissue
• Includes standard vertebral inserts of varying density to permit accurate correlation of quantative studies
• Provides the age-related variable corrections for marrow fat and mineral content
• Provides direct measure of calcium hydroxyapatite content avoiding the need for special extrapolations
• Requires no special scanner software
• Ideal for monitoring effects of therapy on trabecula structure
• Includes PC based report software
• Can be used immediately on whole body scanners
