Pixel Calibration Phantom

  • Designed to make pixel size calibration easy and accurate
  • Pixel calibration is an essential
    component of a SPECT quality control program
  • Ideal for verifying pixel size stated
    by camera manufacturer at acceptance testing and as part of a quality control program
  • The attenuation correction algorithm
    uses the pixel dimension, and if in error, the images will be either over or under corrected.

Pixel calibrations should be done for all acquisition matrices used in both the “x” and “y” axis and for all zooms clinically used. Verifying pixel size is critical if SPECT imaging is to be performed, linear distances or lesion sizes are to be stated in clinical reports or quantitative procedures are to be performed (such as quantitative gated cardiac studies).
