Imaging Phantoms

Imaging phantoms are specially designed objects used in medical imaging to simulate human tissues and organs. They help technicians assess and calibrate imaging devices like X-rays, MRIs, or CT scans, ensuring accurate results. By mimicking the properties of real tissues—like density or composition—phantoms allow for safe testing and training without using live patients. This is crucial for improving image quality, verifying equipment performance, and enhancing diagnostic accuracy in medical settings, ultimately contributing to better patient care.
