OBJECTIVE
An ideal addition to any imaging department or Radiologic Technology training
program, the CIRS Model 715 Series can assist in the monitoring, training and
improvement of parameters and protocols common to most pediatric imaging
procedures.
SPoRTTM is designed to aid teaching and improvement of patient positioning, col-
limation and anatomical comprehension and it’s wide range of features facilitate
effective instruction of safe, high quality, pediatric imaging.
SPoRTTM can be used in film radiography, CR, DR and Computed Tomography.
DESCRIPTION OF THE PHANTOM
The phantom represents a typical 5-year old in both size and structure, making it
portable and easy to position. The full body with head, arms and legs measures
110 cm (43 inches) tall and weighs 20 kg (44 lb).
Right extremeties are available in extended or flexed configurations. Left arm and
leg are available with or without embedded fractures. The fracture versions contain
the most common pediatric fracture types, including buckle fracture to tibia and
common fracture to fibula; fracture to first metatarsal; radius fracture with open
reduction and hardware and a common fracture to second intermediate phalange.
Components are made from propriety urethane and epoxy materials that mimic
X-ray attenuation properties of human tissues for both diagnostic and therapy
energy ranges (50keV-15MeV). The materials are durable, impact resistant and suit-
able for continuous handling.
The Model 715 series consists of six sectional phantoms available separately or as
a complete set. Complete set includes head, trunk, right and left arms with natural
and oblique hand positions and right and left legs with natural and plantar flexion
foot positions.

USE OF THE PHANTOM
The phantom should be used as a training aid for positioning techniques, colloma-
tion, and anatomical comprehension. Simply scan phantom using the same x-ray
technical factors as would be used on a lean patient.
Each user of the phantom may find additional uses and CIRS urges one to share
findings with others when possible and appropriate.

POSITIONING STANDS
The Model 715 can be used with two positioning stands: a small positioning stand
included and only for use with the head phantom (Model 715-HN), and an optional
large stand (Model 715-S-1) which can be used with all of the components of the
Model 715. These stands are designed to allow users to practice alignment and
positioning for different x-ray views.
SMALL POSITIONING STAND
The Small Positioning Stand (Figure 1) should be fully assembled when you receive
your phantom. The only additional setup required will be to attach the phantom
head to the "HEAD" base plate for positioning.
1. Remove the thumb screws from the "HEAD" base plate.
2. Position the phantom face up and align raised cylinder on the phantom with
the matching cavity on the "HEAD" base plate.
3. Tighten the thumb screws to secure the phantom head to the small positioning
stand and base plate.
To adjust the height of the socket base, turn the large hand wheel on the frame
bracket 1/2 turn counter-clockwise, slide socket base to desired height and secure
position by turning large hand wheel 1/2 turn clockwise. Use the small hand wheel
on socket base to adjust the angle and rotation of the head and neck in relation to
the x-ray couch. For greater stability while using the phantom on stand, use a heavy
object as counterweight.

LARGE POSITIONING STAND (MODEL 715-S-1)
The optional Large Positioning Stand (Figure 2), can be used with any of SPoRT's
sections. The stand includes unattached quick-release plates for appendages and
combination base/quick-release plates for the head and trunk sections, along with
necessary tools and hardware to attach plates to all SPoRT sections. These plates
must be attached to the section before the section may be positioned using the
Large Positioning Stand.
Assembling Large Positioning Stand
To assemble frame bracket, lay positioning
stand base along the long edge and align
with the upright so that orange stickers
face toward each other. Ensuring that
edges of base and upright are flush, insert
provided screws and tighten with screw
driver. Be sure not to over tighten.
To attach socket base to frame bracket,
unscrew the large hand wheel from socket
base. Slide large hand wheel through frame
bracket and reattach to socket base. This
completes large positioning assembly.

WARNING: Phantom may fall off table causing injury to operator. Before securing
SPoRT sections on the Large Positioning Stand, place a heavy object on the base
of the stand as a counterweight.
Attaching Prepared SPoRT Section to Large Positioning Stand
All prepared sections attach to the Large Positioning Stand by locking the quick-
release plate to the pre-assembled positioning stand mount on the Large Position-
ing Stand socket base. To lock the quick-release plate into the positioning stand
mount:
1. Unlock the locking lever on the positioning stand mount. Lever will be in 12
o'clock position when unlocked as shown in Figure 6.
2. Orient the section so anterior surface is facing ceiling.
3. Tilt section so quick-release plate is angled to allow posterior edge to make
first contact with posterior edge on the mount.
4. Rotate section to allow entire surface of quick-release plate to make contact
with positioning stand mount. The locking lever will automatically flip to locked
position as shown in Figure 7.
Figure 6 Figure 7
Preparing SPoRT Sections for attachment to Large Positioning Stand
Head & Trunk sections attach to the
Large Positioning Stand using a
combination base/quick-release plate.
This plate must be secured on the
respective section using included thumb
screws. Longer thumb screws are used
on the trunk section. Shorter thumb
screws are used on the head section.
Arm & leg sections attach to the Large
Positioning Stand using a quick-release
plate. This plate must be secured on
the respective section using included
screws. Align the holes in the quick-
release plate with the pre-drilled holes
located on the superior end of each
section (Figure 5). Insert screws and
tighten with included allen wrench.

Using Large Positioning Stand to adjust SPoRT Section Positions
The Large Positioning Stand consists of a frame bracket and socket base. The
large hand wheel on the back of the frame bracket is used to secure the height of
the socket base on the frame bracket. To adjust the height of the socket base,
turn this large hand wheel 1/2 turn counter-clockwise, slide socket base to desired
height and secure position by turning large hand wheel 1/2 turn clockwise.
The angle and rotation of the attached SPoRT section is controlled by adjusting the
ball-joint within the socket base. The three hand wheels on the socket base control
this ball-joint.
• The small hand wheel locks the rotation of the entire socket base. Loosen 1/4
turn to adjust rotation.
• The tension knob is a tension knob used to add friction while adjusting the
phantom positioning. Keep this knob tight for well-controlled movement.
• The locking knob will lock/ loosen the ball in the socket. By loosening this
wheel, you will be able to adjust the rotation and the angle of the phantom in
the positioning stand.
CARE AND HANDLING
Solicit help when moving an assembled head and trunk phantom as it may be
heavy and become hazardous if dropped.
The phantom should be stored in a safe place when not in use. The phantom may
be cleaned with mild soap and water.
Technical questions should be referred to CIRS customer service at
[phone].
