Nuclear medicine phantoms are specialized test objects designed to simulate human anatomy or imaging conditions for calibrating and evaluating nuclear medicine detector systems. They help ensure accurate performance of devices like gamma cameras, SPECT, PET scanners, and associated software by replicating tissue density, attenuation, and radioactive source distribution in controlled settings.
These devices are typically regulated as medical imaging tools, often requiring compliance with calibration and performance standards. They may be supplied as fixed or adjustable configurations, incorporating radioactive sources or refillable wells, and are used in quality control protocols to maintain diagnostic reliability.
