ECT Phantom for PET and SPECT

The Jaszczak SPECT Phantom provides consistent performance information for any SPECT or PET system. Multiple performance characteristics of camera-based SPECT systems are evaluated from a single scan of the phantom.

On-axis and off-axis transverse line spread function may be easily measured without removing the cover plate. Measurements of full-width-half (or tenth) maximum can be readily determined, either in air or in water.

The Phantom is used for:

  • System performance valuation of: Collimator, Artifacts, Calibration, and Reconstruction Parameters
  • Acceptance testing
  • Routine quality, assurance and control
  • Evaluation of center-of-rotation error
  • Evaluation of non-uniformity artifact
  • Evaluation of changes of radius-of-rotation on spatial resolution
  • Evaluation of reconstruction filters on spatial resolution
  • Evaluation of attenuation and scatter compensation 
  • Single slice volume sensitivity
  • Total system volume sensitivity
  • Lesion detectability

SPECT Phantoms are available in two models. The Deluxe Phantom is used for high resolution cameras. The Standard Phantom is used for lower resolution cameras.
