Anthropomorphic Multi-tissue Head Phantom for Microwave Imaging Devices Testing
This paper describes the realization of a versatile anthropomorphic multi-tissue head phantom for testing microwave imaging devices, employing mixtures featuring readily available, not harmful, and stable components. Considering that the evaluation of devices, such as medical ones, might require the variation of the characteristics of the tissues for ...

Cicerone e le statue degli dèi
In Cicero’s work three interpretive modes concerning divine figures or different approaches to anthropomorphic statues may be identified. The first one views the statue as the objectification of the deity.

A moving liver phantom in an anthropomorphic thorax for SPECT MP imaging [PDF]
Abstract Cranio-caudal respiratory motion and liver activity cause a variety of complex myocardial perfusion (MP) artifacts, especially in the inferior myocardial wall, that may also mask cardiac defects. To assess and characterise such artifacts, an anthropomorphic thorax with moving thoracic phantoms can be utilised in SPECT MP ...

Design of an Anthropomorphic Respiratory Phantom for PET Imaging [PDF]
<p><b>Purpose</b> Respiratory motion during positron emission tomography (PET) scans can be a major detriment to image quality in oncological imaging, leading to loss of quantification accuracy and false negative findings. The impact of motion on lesion quantification and detectability can be assessed using anthropomorphic phantoms ...

Application of Fractal Dimension for Quantifying Noise Texture in Computed Tomography Images [PDF]
Purpose Evaluation of noise texture information in CT images is important for assessing image quality. Noise texture is often quantified by the noise power spectrum (NPS), which requires numerous image realizations to estimate.
