Phantom description

This phantom is based on a 1mm isotropic segmented head model which was labeled as described in MRI-based anatomical model of the human head for specific absorption rate mapping.

The segmented head data was converted into a simplified surface model with two compartments: Brain and other soft tissues. Bone and air (both low epsilon, low conductivity) are printed together out of plastic material with similar electrical properties.

= Special considerations

The sealing flange uses an o-ring.
