CT-AEC Phantoms
Four types of phantoms designed to evaluate CT-AEC performance
Features
Image quality can be evaluated by noise and S.D. on the phantom section images
Cone Phantom:
evaluates performance of AEC for different patient sizes and gradual size changes in size along the axis
Elliptical Cone Phantom:
in combination with the Cone phantom facilitates evaluation of XY AEC
Stepped Phantom:
evaluates the performance of the AEC to sudden changes in patient’s cross section
Variable-XY Phantom:
evaluates performance of XY AEC as cross section changes from circular to elliptical
