DYNAMIC FLOW IMAGING PHANTOM AND MODEL THEREFOR
First Claim
1. A phantom for simulation of perfusion, for use in dynamic flow imaging, the phantom comprising:
- a first compartment having a first inlet and a first outlet, the first inlet being connectable to fluid source for introducing fluid into the phantom;
a second compartment having a second outlet;
wherein the first and the second compartments have fluid communication with each other, to simulate perfusion between the first and the second compartments;
each of the first and the second outlets being separately controllable to adjust outflow of fluid from each compartment and to adjust fluid pressure in each compartment, thereby controlling rates of communication of fluids between the first and the second compartments.

Abstract
A phantom for simulation of perfusion, for use in dynamic flow imaging. The phantom includes a first compartment having a first inlet and a first outlet, and a second compartment having a second outlet. The first and the second compartments have fluid communication with each other, to simulate perfusion between the first and the second compartments. The first and the second outlets are separately controllable to adjust outflow of fluid from each compartment and to adjust fluid pressure in each compartment, thereby controlling rates of communication of fluids between the first and the second compartments.
