摘要：

A variable phantom has been devised whose size and shape can be adjusted to match any particular patient's dimensions. The phantom is used for neutron activation analysis studies in which known amounts of elements in aqueous solution are placed in the phantom. The gamma radiation emitted from the phantom is compared to that emitted from the patient in order to assess element lacks associated with various diseases.
