Features
PH-10
BMD Chart Phantom UHA is a Bone Mineral Density (BMD) Chart for microdensitometry (MD) method,
which is widely used to assess bone atrophy in metabolic disorders and skeletal dysplasia. The phantom allows
quantitative assessment of bone mineral using amount of hydroxyapatite in the phantom blocks.
The product is designed for training of healthcare professionals. Usage for any other purpose or the way of use
not described in this manual is strongly discouraged.
Applications
Densitometry
Dos and Don'ts
Handle the phantom and the components with care
Be sure not to drop or add shock to the phantom and its
components, since the product uses special resins and
heavy, such shock may cause damage to the products or
environment.
Do not let ink from pens, oriented materials, this
manual or other sources contact with the product’s
surface, as they cannot be cleaned off.
Storage dark, cool and dry space will help prevent
the product’s colors from fading and product from
deforming.
Never use the organic solvent such as paint thinner
to clean the skin, as this will damage the simulator.
The product may be cleaned with a wet cloth if
necessary, using mildly soapy water or diluted
detergent.
The color of the product’s surface may change
across the ages, this does not affect the quality of
its performance.

How to Use
How to Use
How to Use
1.Take out the phantom blocks from the acrylic case.
It is also possible to radiograph the phantom with the acrylic case, though, be sure to
maintain the same condition for future assessment.
2. Radiograph the phantom together with the right hand of the patient. (see fig.1).
3 Measure the density of the middle point of the second metacarpal on the acquired image
using densitometer.
4. Measure the density of each phantom block and compare the value with that of the
second metacarpal.
5. Following above procedures, assess variation of BMD by days, months, years, or
difference before and after administration of medicines.
