Zusammenfassung:The present application provides apparatus for simulating radio-guided surgery using a light source (8) and a probe (13) having a light detector (16). Specifically, the apparatus includes a subject model (1) that has an enclosure (6) with an opening (4, 5) that extends from an exterior of the subject model (1) into the enclosure (6). The subject model (1) also includes a light source (8) that is disposed within the enclosure (6). The apparatus also includes a probe (13) for deployment by a user through the opening (4, 5) into the enclosure (6). The probe (13) has a light detector (16) configured to detect light emitted by the light source (8) for localization of the light source (8) within the enclosure (6).
