The phantom for NM systems performance evaluation: routine quality assurance tests, as well as extensive acceptance tests. It can be used to evaluate: pixel size, spatial linearity, RMS noise, signal to noise ratio (SNR), slice width, uniformity, spatial resolution, point spread function, slice position verification, slice incrementation, accuracy, center of rotation, verification, volume sensitivity and low contrast sensitivity.
