Summary We developed a phantom using a hollow-fiber hemodialyzer to evaluate the quantitative reliability of cerebral computed tomography (CT) perfusion. Our phantom consisted of a hollow-fiber hemodialyzer and a syringe- shaped X-ray device made up of resin. The phantom can give theoretical true values for cerebral blood volume, cerebral blood flow, and mean transit time. We compared the values measured in the phantom with predicted theoretical values. The purpose of the current report is to describe the theory and experimental technique used to obtain an absolute value in a phantom.
