Product Description

Replicates firmer anatomical structures.

 

Humimic SimuGel™ #3 replicates the compliant texture of organ parenchyma such as liver, spleen, kidney, and relaxed skeletal muscle. Its softer formulation provides realistic feedback for biopsy placement, ultrasound-guided procedures, and excision training in organ-rich regions.

 

SimuGel™ delivers consistent results across sessions, with certified test data for each batch: Young’s Modulus 0.19 MPa, needle resistance 0.35 N, and firmness 234 g. Its fully synthetic makeup removes biological variability, offering stable organ-like performance without refrigeration or degradation.

 

Pour into organ models or phantom housings to create custom scenarios. You can embed vessels or pathology markers for advanced practice. When puncture marks build up, simply reheat to restore a smooth surface. The gel stays shelf-stable, odor-free, and ready for repeated lab use.

 

Why educators and developers choose SimuGel #3:

 

  • For Biopsy Training: Students practice needle placement in soft organ tissue, developing the fine motor control and tactile awareness needed for liver and kidney biopsies.
  • For Ultrasound Imaging: The material’s acoustic properties and soft compliance make it ideal for teaching organ visualization and probe manipulation techniques.
  • For Excision Practice: Surgical trainees perform tissue removal and handling on material that mimics the delicate nature of organ parenchyma.

 

Technical Note: Young’s Modulus quantifies material stiffness under compression. SimuGel #3’s 0.19 MPa value corresponds to soft organ parenchyma including liver, spleen, kidney, and relaxed muscle tissue. This lower modulus creates the compliant feel essential for training procedures on soft internal organs.

 

Certified values represent testing on 1 lb blocks at approximately 70–72°F. Performance may vary with remolding technique, storage environment, and usage patterns.

What is SimuGel #3 used for?
+

Soft organ simulation—ideal for biopsy training, ultrasound imaging of liver/spleen/kidney, and excision practice on parenchymal tissue.

How does SimuGel #3 compare to other formulations?
+

Gel 3 is softer than Gel 0-2 (0.19 MPa), designed specifically for organ parenchyma rather than muscle or composite tissue.

Is it suitable for ultrasound training?
+

Yes. The soft, compliant texture combined with clear acoustic properties makes it excellent for organ imaging and ultrasound-guided procedures. 

Can I reuse this material?
+

Yes. SimuGel #3 withstands multiple needle insertions. When surface damage occurs, simply remelt to restore the material.

Can I add tissue dyes?
+

Yes. The clear base accepts Humimic tissue dyes for creating visually distinct organ structures in training models.
