This phantom assures optimum imaging performance of your mammographic system by providing a baseline from which you can easily monitor your unit’s performance. The Accreditation Phantom contains test objects which simulate malignancies and other small structures seen in the breast (microcalcifications, fibrils, and tumor-like masses).

All the test objects are contained in a single wax block which is enclosed in an acrylic base. This phantom is designed to simulate a 4.0 to 4.5 cm compressed breast. Included with each phantom is a 4 mm acrylic disk for making density difference measurements as required by the American College of Radiology (ACR)
