Nasal cavity phantoms have been developed as part of a CDC program. They are available for aerosol deposition studies in children of various ages and young adults. Corresponding computational mesh models are available for in silico studies. Phantom models can be customized for specific applications, or we can build entirely new models for you.
- Based on CT scans of 2,5,7,12,15, and 18 year old children with normal/healthy nasal anatomy
- High precision, reconstructed from 300-500 CT images per model.
- Detailed exterior nose, nasal cavity, turbinates, and sinuses (where available).
- Both left and right nasal cavity are part of phantom (and connected).
- Exterior nose and face are from skin-like soft material. Ideal for testing/fitting drug delivery devices. Exterior nose and face are available separately.
- Models are cut at several locations for easy access and cleaning.
- Available for several ages (2, 5, 7, 12, 15, and 18), other ages on request.
- Mouth and lung openings can be created in phantoms.
- Corresponding computational mesh and models are available.
- Phantom models can be customized for specific applications.
- Flexible faces are available separately for testing of biomedical devices.
