PROCEDURES:
The KPP is an ideal training model for training in renal ultrasound. The phantom has been validated using multiple transabdominal ultrasound probes which demonstrate clear imaging of all the pathological components. Multiple procedures can be performed on this phantom including renal and tumor biopsy, renal collecting system access (by US-guided puncture), complete percutaneous lithotripsy including stone break up, ureteroscopy and lithotripsy, resection of mucosal based tumors and percutaneous kidney tumor ablation (cryotherapy, RFA). The phantom is fully customizable including kidney tumor, stone and mucosal lesion size and location. The phantom can be ordered with a CT or MRI file.
