Description

Helps new learners avoid orientation errors during ultrasound scanning. 

The Orientation Ultrasound Phantom Trainer is designed to teach image orientation and basic ultrasound principles. Two vessels with different shapes and depths are embedded in the phantom. They can be scanned from the top, bottom, or sides to replicate common scan planes used in patient care. 

The phantom is made with Humimic SimuGel™, which mimics the acoustic properties of human tissue. Instructors can refill the vessels with water, air, or other solutions to show how echogenicity and artifact appearance change. 

Two model options are available: a clear version for visual feedback during teaching or a colorized version that provides ultrasound characteristics closer to real tissue and requires less gain adjustment. This trainer is suitable for individual scanning or structured group sessions in simulation labs and introductory ultrasound programs. 

Features: 

• Multi-Angle Scanning – Vessels can be scanned from the top, bottom, and sides to demonstrate real-world imaging planes. 

• Depth and Orientation Training – Two vessels of different shapes and depths highlight how probe angle and plane of cut affect ultrasound images. 

• Humimic SimuGel™ Realism – Provides lifelike ultrasound response with consistent acoustic properties. 

• Refillable Vessels – Can be filled with water, air, or solutions to demonstrate changes in echogenicity and artifact appearance. 

• Clear or Colorized Models – Clear version supports visual teaching feedback; colorized version simulates human tissue density. 

• Durable and Reusable – Self-healing surface withstands repeated scanning and vessel refilling without degradation. 

• Safe for Education – Latex-free, non-toxic, and packaged with an airtight storage container for convenience.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) 

1. Who typically uses this phantom?

It is commonly used in ultrasound training programs, simulation labs, and medical education facilities. 

2. What is the difference between clear and colorized models?

Clear models give visual reference during teaching but require higher gain (80–90%). Colorized models produce more tissue-like ultrasound images and require less gain adjustment (60–70%). 

3. Can the vessels be reused?

Yes. They can be refilled multiple times for demonstrations and practice. 

4. What probe works best?

A high-frequency linear probe is recommended. 

5. Is special storage required?

No. The phantom can be stored in a cool, dry location using the included airtight container.
