Bone Density Calibration Phantoms

For HU vs. HA calibrations with respect to Bone Mineral Densitometry evaluation of bones

  • Measure bone mineral density (BMD) with quantitative CT
  • Perform HU vs. CaHA
  • For different regions such as shoulder, spine, hip, femur
  • Place directly under test object with easy-to-use design
  • Three or six inserts with various CaHA densities in tissue-equivalent housing
  • Various models with 3 or 6 inserts and several lengths (up to 700 mm) available:

       BDC with 3 inserts: 0, 100, 200 mg CaHA/cm³

       BDC with 6 inserts: 0, 100, 200, 400, 600, 800 mg CaHA/cm³ 

 

The Bone Density Calibration Phantom is a convenient tool to calibrate HU vs. CaHA with respect to bone mineral densitometry (BMD) evaluation.

The flat design of the phantoms allows to place the phantom directly under an object to evaluate the Bone Mineral Density (BMD) by CT.

The inserts are made of a solid water-equivalent plastic (CTwater) enriched with CaHA of appropriate grain size and embedded in a proprietary soft tissue-equivalent material.

Other phantom lengths and CaHA concentrations are available upon request.
