Claims20
A calibration phantom holder for an imaging system comprising:
- a horizontal member comprising at least one slot on an upper surface of the horizontal member, the at least one slot configured to support one or more calibration phantoms;
- and
- a vertical member perpendicularly coupled to the horizontal member.
An imaging system comprising:
- a cradle;
- a support system;
