Ludlum Medical Physics Model L-901

  NEMA SCA&I Fluoroscopic Phantom

Introduction

The NEMA-SCA&I was developed to evaluate and standardize the Interventional fluoroscopic image. The design is the result of a collaboration of efforts between the Society for Cardiac Angiography and Interventions and the National Electric Manufacturers Association. Use of the phantom provides voluntary compliance with published NEMA standard XR21.

The phantom is primarily manufactured from PMMA (acrylic) with x-ray absorption properties similar to soft tissue at standard diagnostic energies. There are a variety of static and dynamic test targets designed to assess spatial resolution, motion un-sharpness and radiation exposure. 

The 12 PMMA plates provide a variety of phantom thicknesses, allowing simulation of child to adult configurations.
