To ensure the performance and consistency of your multi-energy scans, Sun Nuclear (formerly Gammex) developed the Multi Energy CT Phantom.
The phantom features 19 inserts representing different dimensions and concentrations of iodine, calcium, blood, adipose and other materials of particular interest to Multi-Energy CT (MECT). The phantom enables comprehensive tests of multi-energy CT performance.

AUTOMATEDÂ MATERIAL DISCRIMINATION
With this phantom, you can easily test material discrimination using solid rods representing iodine, calcium, blood, adipose, and more. Patented rod markers enable automated analysis to streamline this process.
ENSURE SCANNER EFFICACY & CONSISTENCY
But, you can also test the efficacy of your clinical protocols for multi-energy analysis and compare consistency and stability across different scanners
COMPREHENSIVE TESTING OF SCANNER PERFORMANCE
This CT phantom enables robust evaluation of the scanner’s performance.
These features include:
- Material discrimination testing using solid rods representing iodine, calcium, blood, adipose, and more
- Ensuring efficacy of clinical protocols for multi-energy analysis
- Verifying quantitative accuracy of multi-energy scans
- Comparing consistency and stability across different scanners
- Checking for artifacts in an extended field-of-view
- Testing in head (20 cm) and body (40 cm x 30 cm) configurations
- Automating analysis with patent-pending rod marker technology
