Coronary Artery Stenosis Phantoms

For the analysis of various case studies on coronary heart disease

3 different sets

3 different sets with various plaque and lumen combinations available

Coronary Artery Stenosis Phantom Set AX
Coronary Artery Stenosis Phantom Set BX
Coronary Artery Stenosis Phantom Set DX

Specially designed holder with Thorax Phantom

With the specially designed holder (QRM-60109), up to three coronary artery phantoms can be placed within the QRM water tank phantom (QRM-10113).

The water tank can be combined with the optional available thorax phantom (QRM-20100) to mimic a (semi-)anthropomorphic measurement environment.

Customized stenosis phantoms

Other plaque and lumen geometries with various concentrations of Iodine, CaHA and other cardiac relevant materials are available upon request. Please contact us.

Set AX or set BX or Set DX or customized versions

Three different sets simulating diverse plaque materials and different stenosis are available.

The sets cover diverse scenarios combining three plaque materials (Fibro-fat, Lipid and Ca-enriched) with eccentric and concentric stenosis.

To mimic non-contrast and contrast scans, each set includes phantoms with blood-equivalent and iodine-enhanced lumen.

Three different sets with various plaque and lumen combinations

QRM-60106 (Set of 6 coronary artery phantoms): 17%, 33%, and 50% eccentric stenosis in each phantom, 6 different material combinations of different plaques/vessel lumen. All phantoms with vessel wall.

QRM-60107 (Set of 4 coronary artery phantoms): 50% eccentric stenosis; 3 different plaque materials in each phantom, 2 different lumen materials with & without a vessel wall.

QRM-60108 (Set of 6 coronary artery phantoms): 67% and 33% concentric stenosis in each phantom, 6 different material combinations of different plaques/vessel lumen. All phantoms with vessel wall.
