The QRM MicroCT Wire Phantom is based on
a cylinder containing two wires in air or solid
material aligned parallel to the phantom axis
of rotation. One of the wires is slightly off
center, the second one away from the center in
order to allow estimating image quality in the
periphery.
Point Spread Function (PSF) and Modulation
Transfer Function (MTF) can so easily be
investigated.
Different wire diameters are available as well
as different materials and positions of the
wires inside the phantom.
Please specify the material the wires should
placed in (air or solid plastics). In both cases
the contrast will be high enough for
evaluation.
Standard phantoms are scaled down from the
diameter of an average human trunk (32 cm)
to that of a fat mouse or lean rat (32 mm).
Other dimensions as well as inserts with
substances other than specified here can be
produced upon request.
