SKILLS

For fetal examination with ultrasound.

  • Fetal size assessment: BPD, AD, AC and FL
  • Measurement of amniotic fluid volume
  • Determination of fetus presentation (cephalic or breech)
  • Assessment of each body part
    • Head: skull and brain
    • Spine and limbs
    • Cardiac chambers, blood vessels and lungs
  • Assessment of umbilical cord and placenta position
  • Determination of sex (This phantom represents a male fetus)

Designed with high anatomical fidelity to an actual fetus, allowing training with diverse measurement methods.

Highly detailed fetus model

The fetus includes full skeletal structures and key organs

FETUS:

    • skeletal structure
    • brain with septum lucidum
    • lateral ventricles and cerebellum
    • heart with four chambers
    • lungs
    • spleen
    • bladder
    • stomach
    • liver
    • kidneys
    • aorta
    • umbilical vein
    • umbilical artery
    • external genitalia

UTERUS:

    • amniotic fluid
    • placenta
    • umbilical cord

Fetus size: 26cm/10.24 in. (a 23-week fetus)

FEATURES

Anatomically Accurate Reproduction of the Intrauterine Environment

With actual ultrasound probes, trainees can practice screening examinations in a highly realistic manner.

1. Fetal Measurements

  • BPD (Biparietal Diameter): Measured at the level of the cavum septi pellucidi

  • AC (Abdominal Circumference): Measured at the level of the stomach, abdominal aorta, and umbilical vein

  • FL (Femur Length): Measured across the entire length of the femur

Estimation of fetal weight and assessment of growth

Support for other measurement methods

2. Amniotic Fluid Volume

Vertical depth measurement at the largest pocket (Maximum Vertical Pocket method)


3. Diagnosis of Head, Thorax, Abdomen, and Spine

  • Skull morphology and brain assessment

  • Heart four-chamber view, great vessels, inclination, and lungs
    Note: Cardiac pulsation and blood flow dynamics are not reproduced.

  • Abdominal organs and vasculature including stomach, kidneys, and bladder

  • Spine and limbs


4. Umbilical Cord and Placenta

Observation of the cord and its vessels, cord–placenta connection, and placental position.


5. Fetal Presentation

Determination of cephalic or breech presentation with interchangeable diagnostic section


6. Fetal Sex Determination

Reproduction of male genitalia for sex identification
