The Thyroid Phantom contains a neck with corresponding “Superhuman Skeleton” vertebrae, a hollow-shell thyroid with filling and flushing ports, and a front cover of tissue-equivalent phantom material.
This assembly has been designed for rapid removal of the cover plate and thyroid, a quick fill with an isotope solution and an equally rapid reassembly. This permits work with iodines of very short half-lives. A portion of the clavicles and sternum are included to further enhance the realism of the phantom.

Known for developing the crash-test dummy that transformed the automotive industry, Samuel W. Alderson applied his impactful research and development in replicating the human body to revolutionize the medical industry with phantoms. RSD’s team of experts has perfected the design and construction of “superhuman” bones as a result of our detailed attention to skeleton construction which is considered a triumph of our sculptural mold maker’s craft. All RSD products are custom-made in the USA, rigorously tested for quality assurance, and guaranteed with a 2-year limited warranty. It’s a well-known fact that we, at RSD, have a longstanding passion for phantoms!
