An imaging phantom for contrast imaging calibration. The phantom includes a body defining at least one cavity having a directional configuration corresponding to at least one pre-determined direction of motion of the phantom. The phantom also includes at least one imaging capsule configured to match and be contained in the at least one cavity. The imaging capsule comprises a material having an imaging contrast different from that of the body.

Phantom for contrast imaging calibration

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.
