This document is the instruction manual for the ATS Laboratories Model 551 Small Parts Phantom, which is used to evaluate the accuracy and performance of ultrasound imaging systems.
The Model 551 Small Parts Phantom is a rubber-based tissue-mimicking device designed to evaluate the accuracy and performance of ultrasound imaging systems. Constructed from a durable rubber material, it avoids common issues like melting or freezing found in water-based phantoms and is guaranteed for ten years. It features a scanning well for water or coupling agents and mimics human tissue acoustic properties.
