Claims17
An anatomically correct pelvimetry phantom of a selected pure or mixed anatomical type comprising a replica of at least part of the anterior section of the bony pelvis and a replica of at least part of the posterior section of the bony pelvis and connection means for separably connecting said sections to form a complete replica of the bony pelvis of a pure or a mixed anatomical type.
A pelvimetry phantom comprising a replica of at least part of the anterior section of the bony pelvis and a replica of at least part of the posterior section of the bony pelvis, said sections being separably connected to form a complete replica of the bony pelvis of a pure or mixed anatomical type, where the anterior section further comprises separably connectable blocks replicating (a) the right ischium and pubes and (b) the left ischium and pubes.
A pelvimetry phantom comprising a replica of at least part of the anterior section of the bony pelvis and a replica of at least part of the posterior section of the bony pelvis, said sections being separably connected to form a complete replica of the bony pelvis of a pure or mixed anatomical type, where the posterior section further comprises separably connectable blocks replicating (a) the sacrum and coccyx, (b) the right ilium, and (c) the left ilium.
A pelvimetry phantom comprising a replica of at least part of the anterior section of the bony pelvis and a replica of at least part of the posterior section of the bony pelvis, said sections being separably connected to form a complete replica of the bony pelvis of a pure or mixed anatomical type, where the posterior section further comprises separably connectable blocks replicating (a) the sacrum and coccyx, (b) the right ilium, and (c) the left ilium, and the anterior section further comprises separably connectable blocks replicating (d) the right ischium and pubes and (e) the left ischium and pubes.
A kit for the assembly of a pelvimetry phantom, capable of simulating any of the standard pure and mixed pelvic types, which comprises replicas of anterior gynecoid, anthropoid, android and platypelloid pelvic sections and replicas of posterior, gynecoid, anthropoid, android and platypelloid sections, anterior sections being adapted to be releasably connected to any of said posterior sections.
A kit for the assembly of a pelvimetry phantom, capable of simulating any of the standard pure and mixed pelvic types, which comprises sets of blocks replicating (a) the sacrum and coccyx, (b) the right ilium, (c) the left ilium, (d) the right ischium and pubes, and (e) the left ischium and pubes, each set of blocks comprising one block of each of the gynecoid, anthropoid, android and platypelloid types.
A kit for the assembly of a pelvimetry phantom, capable of simulating a plurality of pelvic types, comprising replicas of a plurality of anterior sections of different pelvic types and a plurality of posterior sections of different pelvic types.
