Produced in co-operation with Transurethral operation techniques require extensive training.
A practice phantom can support the learning process to a great extent.
The phantom comprises a natural size trunk, made of special plastic with interchangeable genitalia, on a base with a water tray:
- Male genitalia with urethra and interchangeable prostate and connection to the bladder
- External female genitalia with urethra and connection to the bladder.
- The prostate capsule can be filled with natural or synthetic materials.
- The bladder is split and joined together with a sealing ring.
The bladder incorporates four openings:
- The front connection to either the prostate or urethra
- The top to take a bladder trocar or for drainage.
- The back wall for providing tissue, if necessary, for measuring pressure or the insertion of electrodes.
- All endoscopic operations can be practised on the phantom using Ultrasound or Lasers.
- The phantom is also suitable for various experimental examinations.
