Pro-NM ACR Performance PET

ACR-Approved. AAPM Report 177 compliant. Built for PET accreditation testing.

Refillable cylinder design for flexible hot/cold lesion configuration.

The Pro-NM ACR Performance PET Lid is a PET imaging phantom designed to meet ACR Nuclear Medicine and PET Accreditation Program requirements. It combines three test sections in a single PMMA cylinder: a cold rod insert for spatial resolution assessment (4.8–12.7 mm rods), a uniform section for SUV calibration and background uniformity testing, and an ACR-compliant PET Lid with refillable thin-walled cylinders for hot and cold lesion contrast evaluation.

Refillable cylinders, not solid spheres

Unlike standard PET phantoms with fixed-activity solid spheres, the Pro-NM PET Lid uses refillable thin-walled cylinders that allow you to set custom hot-to-background activity ratios for each test. This gives you flexibility to:

✅ Match your facility's clinical FDG protocols
✅ Adjust contrast ratios for harmonization studies
✅ Reuse the phantom across multiple test scenarios without replacing inserts

Optimize your phantom preparation workflow

Tomographic uniformity testing depends on a fully homogeneous radioactive solution (typically Tc-99m). Pair your Pro-NM ACR Performance PET lid Phantom with the Pro-NM Automixer for:

✅ Hands-free, automated phantom rotation
✅ Reduced personnel radiation exposure (ALARA-compliant workflow)
✅ Consistent, reproducible solution homogeneity
✅ Mixing complete in 5–10 minutes
