We develop our own phantoms for accurate coil sensitivity profile evaluation as well as for testing the behavior of the coils in the presence of living tissues. In fabrication, we use standard processing as well as state-of-the-art additive manufacturing technologies. On the pictures above you can see examples of our cylindrical and human head/neck shaped phantoms.
For phantom and coil former design as well as for accurate prediction of coil electric performance we use an extensive library of CAD tools.
