Digital Imaging Phantom: Gammex Neonatal Chest Phantom

Gammex, Inc., a leader in the manufacture and distribution of quality control devices introduces its newest addition to the high quality phantom line.

Gammex, Inc. is proud to unveil the first of a new class of phantoms and objective system performance tools for use in digital radiographic systems. Because neonatal chest radiography is a technically challenging procedure with profound radiation dose implications, the Gammex Neonatal Chest Phantom is designed to simulate the disease states of pneumothorax and hyaline membrane while permitting system resolution and noise testing. Used in conjunction with the System Performance Test Tool that will quantifiably measure resolution (MTF), nose (NPS), and detector efficiency (DQE), this easy to use, compact system addresses important Quality Control needs in computed radiography (CR) and digital radiography (DR).
