Products

• MicroPET PSF — Leeds Test Objects: A tissue equivalent point spread function phantom for pre-clinical PET systems. It comprises pairs of cylinders in six tissue equivalent materials, one solid and one with a central hole to take a capillary filled with radionuclide.
• NU4 PET IQ — Leeds Test Objects: A small field of view PET image quality phantom designed for pre-clinical scanners. It allows testing of image quality, attenuation correction and scatter correction using fillable rods, fillable cylinders and a uniform section, to the NEMA NU4 standard.
• PET CT MRI Cubes — Leeds Test Objects: A set of seven clear PMMA cubes each holding a small fillable spherical void, used as point source markers for checking alignment between PET, CT and MR. They can be filled with a radionuclide, CT contrast agent or MR contrast agent and sealed with the nylon screw supplied.
• PET IQ — Leeds Test Objects: An anthropomorphic PMMA body phantom for PET and PET/CT image quality testing. Six hollow fillable spheres screw into a plate on one face and can be filled with water for cold lesion imaging or with 18F FDG for hot lesion imaging.
• NEMA IEC Body Phantom Set, Model PET/IEC-BODY/P — MiE GmbH: This set is made up of a body phantom, a lung insert and an insert carrying six spheres of various sizes. Its design follows the recommendations of the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) as modified by the National Electrical Manufacturers Association (NEMA), and MiE recommend it for evaluating reconstructed image quality in whole body PET imaging. Listed applications include simulation of whole body imaging with PET and camera based coincidence techniques, determination of coincidence count rate characteristics in brain and cardiac imaging, evaluation of the relationship between true coincidence count rate and radioactivity, determination of address errors caused by address pile up, evaluation of the count loss correction scheme and research. MiE also supply customised phantoms on request.
• Four Quadrant Bar Phantom (Rectangular, Square and Circular) — MiE GmbH: MiE publish the four quadrant bar phantom in three formats. The Rectangular Bar Phantom measures 22 1/4 in x 17 in with bar sizes of 2 mm, 2.5 mm, 3 mm and 3.5 mm. The Square Bar Phantom is 16 7/8 in square with bar sizes of 1/8 in, 5/32 in, 1/4 in and 3/16 in. The Circular Bar Phantom is 16 in round with bar sizes of 2 mm, 2.5 mm, 3 mm and 3.5 mm.
• Cobalt-57 Flood Sources (C-Thru) — MiE GmbH: MiE describe these as the highest quality sources for performing quality control on gamma camera systems. Every C-Thru flood source uses proprietary cobalt chemistry in the manufacturing process and is delivered with a homogeneous field of view distribution showing a coefficient of less than 1 % variation. Recommended working life of a Co-57 flood source is 2 years, and disposal of sources is arranged on request.
• Jaszczak Phantom (Deluxe) — MiE GmbH: A Jaszczak phantom for quality control, used to carry out system evaluation on all types of SPECT and PET systems covering uniformity, linearity and resolution, as well as acceptance testing and routine quality assurance and control. The Deluxe version has a cylinder wall thickness of 3.2 mm, a cylinder inside diameter of 21.6 cm and a cylinder inside height of 18.6 cm. Rods are supplied in six diameters at a height of 8.8 cm, and six solid spheres are set with their centres 12.7 cm above the base plate.
• Flood Sources and gamma check sources — MiE GmbH: Flood sources and gamma check sources published by MiE for most gamma camera systems. They are offered in different activities and sizes. MiE list them in the accessories range alongside the Cobalt-57 flood sources.
