An anthropomorphic beating heart phantom for cardiac X‐ray CT imaging evaluation

The current work describes an anthropomorphic beating heart phantom constructed as a tool for the assessment of technological advances in cardiac X‐ray computed tomography (CT). The phantom is comprised of a thorax, a compressor system, an ECG system, a beating heart with tortuous coronary arteries,...

description The current work describes an anthropomorphic beating heart phantom constructed as a tool for the assessment of technological advances in cardiac X‐ray computed tomography (CT). The phantom is comprised of a thorax, a compressor system, an ECG system, a beating heart with tortuous coronary arteries, and the option to add or remove pathologies such as aberrant beats, stents, and plaques. Initial trials with the phantom have shown its utility to assess temporal resolution, spatial resolution, radiation dose, iodine contrast, stents, and plaques. PACS numbers: 87.59.Fm, 87.57.Ce
