Enhance clinical skills sessions with the Breast Phantom Skills Trainer, a trainer for the practice and development of essential breast examination skills. This is a valuable tool for medical education, particularly to medical and nursing students, as well as other health professionals/students.
The manikin is anatomically correct and features a female upper torso with cysts and masses embedded within the breast and axilla of both sides. On the left breast, there are 3 cysts and 6 masses placed randomly within the breast and axilla. On the right breast, there are 10 cysts, all of which are varying in sizes and depths. The breasts are removable and easily reassembled, for extra versatility.
Aside from gaining confidence in breast palpation techniques, the trainer is innovative, and allows students to visualise indiscernible cysts/masses of the breast using real ultrasound equipment. Procedures, such as ultrasound-guided needle aspirations, can also be performed, where fluid is removed from the breasts and users can observe the shrinkage and disappearance of the cysts.
The trainer is constructed using high-quality material and has a self-healing skin, that leaves no marks following the removal of aspiration or biopsy needles.
The Breast Phantom Skills Trainer is therefore an essential resource for health students to gain competence in the identification of breast pathologies, in a relaxed environment. It is complimented with a soft carrying bag, for ease of transportation.
