Shelley's programmable Multimodality DCE Perfusion Phantom simulates in vitro blood flow and two-compartment contrast flow pharmacokinetics using pressure-controlled fluid exchange with either step function-based or typical clinical arterial input function (AIF) inputs.  This novel phantom produces a wide range of predictable, reproductible and quantifiable time concentration curves (TCCs), which generate a wide range of realistic input and output functions simulating clinically relevant perfusion TCCs.  The ability of this phantom to generate DCE quality assurance protocols with realistic flow provides an excellent framework for validation of perfusion and kinetic modeling, and enables DCE imaging to be utilized as a quantitative imaging tool to compare imaging scanners.

Optional pumps: CompuFlow 1000 MR, CompuFlow 1000 or a Shelley recommended Peristaltic pump.
