Use of anthropomorphic compressed breast phantoms for comparing ultrasound breast imagers

Archives of Acoustics, 2014
Two anthropomorphic breast phantoms were used to compare state-of the art ultrasound imagers. The phantoms mimic refractive effects at fat to nonfat boundaries, and include simulated and pathological structures like fibroadenomas, cysts, calcifications ...

Patient Dose Optimisation of Abdominopelvic Protocols During X‐Ray Imaging

Journal of Medical Radiation Sciences, EarlyView.
This study evaluates organ doses in abdominopelvic radiography for both erect and supine positions, addressing dose optimisation concerns in Ghana. Using CalDose X and thermoluminescence dosimeters, organ doses and image quality were analysed, revealing significant dose reductions with optimised exposure parameters (70 kVp, 10 mAs, 110 cm FDD).

Anthropomorphic Multi-tissue Head Phantom for Microwave Imaging Devices Testing

2023 17th European Conference on Antennas and Propagation (EuCAP), 2023
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 ...
