1. An injection apparatus configured to simulate at least a portion of a patient under test, the injection apparatus comprising:
- a first structure configured to simulate a portion of a patient under test, the first structure comprising;
a first synthetic anatomical layer configured to simulate a first muscle layer or a first skin layer and attenuate emitted light from a testing tool; and
a second synthetic anatomical layer different from the first synthetic anatomical layer, the second synthetic anatomical layer configured to simulate a second muscle layer or a second skin layer and attenuate the emitted light from the testing tool, the first and second synthetic anatomical layers being configured to attenuate emitted light from the testing tool differently; and
a light detector positioned inside of the first structure to detect the light attenuated by the synthetic anatomical structure, the detected light being used to determine at least one testing parameter of a desired injection.

Abstract
Systems and methods are disclosed for an apparatus and method for practicing injection techniques through an injectable apparatus. The injectable apparatus may contain a camera that is configured to detect the intensity and color of light attenuated from a testing tool after it is injected into a simulated human or animal body parts. A training tool may be connected to a user display device to generate a display of the injection apparatus as well as the performance parameters of a trainee.

8. A method of rating an injector, the method comprising:
-
using an injection apparatus to detect injection parameters about an injection by an injector using a testing tool configured to emit light, the injection apparatus comprising; a first synthetic anatomical layer configured to simulate a first muscle layer or a first skin layer and attenuate the emitted light from a testing tool; and a second synthetic anatomical layer different from the first synthetic anatomical layer, the second synthetic anatomical layer configured to simulate a second muscle layer or a second skin layer and attenuate the emitted light from the testing tool, the first and second synthetic anatomical layers being configured to attenuate emitted light from the testing tool differently; detecting light emitted from the testing tool using a light detector positioned inside of the injection apparatus; and determining a rating of the injector from the injection parameters based on the detected light. - View Dependent Claims (9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14)
