Dual Source Scatter Phantom


Price: Call JRT for Pricing
Item Number: 76-840



The Dual Source scatter phantom simulates in-vivo forward and backscatter characteristics of 99mTc gamma rays for the extrinsic measurement of a scintillation camera’s deadtime. The phantom produces a spectrum typical of that observed from 99mTc in the myocardium.
