Traumas and Pathologies (-01 to -59)
Dimensions:
The size and weight of PIXY are also used for Debbie. She is a small adult. Since technologists must learn to work with patients of all sizes and weights, a smaller phantom is as valid for training as a larger phantom, and positioning is facilitated. She is 5ft. 1 in. (156 cm) and weighs 105 lbs (48kg)
Soft Tissues:
Debbie has solid soft tissues that are hard and rigid. She cannot be palpated to locate traumas. However, radiological technologists are generally informed by the physician as to the views to be taken. The manual provides this information to instructors.
Neck
Among the trade-offs required for these phantoms is the between anatomic fidelity and the ability to move the head into the broad range of views required in radiography. No mechanism can be designed for intervertebral motion without artifacts obliterating the radiographs.
This problem has been solved by the use of two necks. One is a multi-articulated polycarbonate assembly which provides for nearly all commonly used views. There is no attempt at radiographic realism in this neck. An alternate, fully-realistic neck is interchangeable with the mechanical neck. The cervical spine of this neck contains traumas.
