Overview

Humimic SimuGel™ #2 provides a noticeable step down in resistance from SimuGel™ #0 and #1, making it suitable for procedures that involve softer internal tissue response. It maintains enough structure to support cutting, suturing, and manipulation while offering increased compliance. 

 

This formulation is commonly selected when users want realistic deformation without excessive collapse, especially in surgical training or imaging-guided procedures. SimuGel™ #2 remains clear under ultrasound and performs consistently across training sessions. 

 

Typical Use Scenarios 

  • Surgical skills and procedural training 
  • Ultrasound-guided biopsy practice 
  • Cutting and suturing exercises 
  • Device evaluation requiring compliant tissue behavior

Technicals

Mechanical & Acoustic Overview 

Each SimuGel™ formulation is mechanically and acoustically characterized to ensure consistent, repeatable performance across training and testing environments. 

  • Mechanical validation: Batches are compression- and needle-tested using standardized methods to verify resistance, deformation, and recovery behavior. 
  • Batch consistency: Reported website values represent validated population ranges; batch-specific results are provided on the Certificate of Analysis included with each unit. 
  • Ultrasound compatibility: SimuGel™ supports ultrasound imaging with predictable acoustic behavior across common clinical frequencies. 
  • System-based design: Mechanical and acoustic properties are part of the calibrated SimuGel™ 0–5 formulation system and are intended to be interpreted in context across the full material range.

What makes SimuGel #2 different from other formulations?
+

Gel #2 is designed specifically for muscle-like properties (0.25 MPa), making it ideal for surgical cutting and suturing practice. It’s softer than Gel 0-1 but firmer than organ-specific formulations.

Can I use this with ultrasound imaging?
+

Yes. SimuGel #2 provides excellent acoustic clarity with linear probes, making it ideal for ultrasound-guided procedure training through muscle layers.

Is it suitable for surgical skills training?
+

Absolutely. The muscle-like resistance makes it perfect for teaching cutting, suturing, and tissue handling techniques that replicate operative conditions.

How many times can it be reused?
+

SimuGel #2 withstands repeated surgical cutting and needle punctures. When surface damage accumulates, simply remelt to restore the material.

Can I customize it with dyes?
+

Yes. The clear formulation accepts Humimic tissue dyes, including tan dye for creating anatomically layered models.
