Brachy Prostate Phantom with\without Catheter

Most Accurate Prostate Phantom & Surrounding Tissues Mimicking Device for Ultrasound, MRI, CT modalities

Brachy Prostate with Catheter Phantom image png Prostate Phantom Brachy Prostate Phantom with or without Catheter
Yezitronix' radioactive seeds implantation Model S-B-2.3 Ultrasound Prostate Phantom is a multiple usage phantom developed for simulation and training for brachytherapy procedures.

Its ingenious and versatile design makes the S-B-2.3 model a useful tool for simulation and training of different ultrasound rectal probes and surgical elements involved in prostate medical procedures.

The prostate phantom construct mimics the exact 3D shape and size of:

40cc Prostate
Urethra
Seminal vesicle
Ejaculatory duct
Rectal wall
Partial bladder
Fat muscle tissues
Perineal Tissue
Numerous lesions located inside the prostate.

All organs & tissues are correctly adjusted to mimic exact ultrasound echogenicity seen by surgeon during OR procedures.
Suitable for:
OEMs. medical devices simulation, robotic system calibration, hospitals, clinics, med schools training and demonstrations.

All phantom tissues' mechanical properties are approximated to human tissues. All prostate phantom layers mimic the tissue behaviour (dynamics) when pierced. When for example a needle is piercing the Multi-Layer Prostate Phantom construct, it will generate a "Haptic Feedback (tactile)" to the user, simulating the real human tissue during biopsies or Brachytherapy procedure.

General User Guide for steps in Brachytherapy mode

The Yezitronix Brachytherapy mode at its initial state when receiving the unit

1.The Yezitronix Brachytherapy mode at its initial state when receiving the unit

Remove the knob at the probe input channel by rotating it counterclockwise.

2.Remove the knob at the probe input channel by rotating it counterclockwise.

Release both (left and right) toggle latches from the catch plates in order to remove the front

3.Release both (left and right) toggle latches from the catch plates in order to remove the front window.

Remove the front window, to discover the skin component behind it.

4.Remove the front window, to discover the skin component behind it.

Install the template Brachytherapy on the template holders.

5.Install the template Brachytherapy on the template holders.

6.Apply sufficient Ultrasound gel inside the probe channel before insertion of the Brachytherapy probe for better ultrasound image

nsert the brachytherapy needle through the template holes and follow up its path using theultrasound planes (Transverse or Sagittal). Probe Brachytherapy Needle

7.Insert the brachytherapy needle through the template holes and follow up its path using theultrasound planes (Transverse or Sagittal). Probe Brachytherapy Needle

8.When done with the experiments please go backward to:
a.Re-install the front window.
b.Remove the excess ultrasound gel from the probe channel.
c.Re-install the knob.

9.The steps in paragraph 8.,will keep your phantom fresh and ready for your next experiments.
