PHS Technologies Group, a unit of PACSHealth, will integrate software from Virtual Phantoms into its radiation dose monitoring system.
PHS Technologies plans to add VirtualDoseCT to its DoseMonitor single-server, browser-based software, which automates radiation dose data collection and reporting. DoseMonitor also integrates into RIS, electronic medical records, and the American College of Radiology (ACR) Dose Index Registry.
VirtualDoseCT is radiation dose simulation software constructed with anatomically correct phantoms, graphics processing unit-based Monte Carlo simulation, and software-as-a-service (SaaS) programming techniques developed from more than a decade of research. It allows users to compute doses to radiosensitive organs for a broad range of patients, including pediatric patients and those who differ from the "average" body size.
![Axial images from unenhanced calcium score cardiac CT (left) and curved planar reformation images from CT angiography (right) show that higher long-term exposure to air pollution is associated with greater coronary artery calcium and more obstructive coronary artery disease (CAD). Top row: Images in a 68-year-old male patient with higher 10-year mean ambient air pollution exposure (7.9 μg/m3 for particulate matter measuring ≤2.5 μm in diameter [PM2.5] and 17.4 parts per billion [ppb] for NO2) with extensive CAD (coronary artery calcium score [CACS] >1,000 and obstructive CAD [≥70% diameter stenosis]). Bottom row: Images in a 57-year-old female patient with lower 10-year mean ambient air pollution exposure (6.3 μg/m3 for PM2.5 and 4.6 ppb for NO2) with no CAD (CACS = 0 and no obstructive stenosis).](https://img.auntminnie.com/mindful/smg/workspaces/default/uploads/2026/06/hanneman.r6SMLzkezo.png?auto=format%2Ccompress&dpr=2&fit=crop&h=167&q=70&w=250)
