Development of 3D-Printed Heterogeneous Tumour Phantom for Quantitative Analysis in PET/CT Imaging [PDF]

open access: yesMATEC Web of Conferences, 2021
Tumours are heterogenous growths that consists of different types of cells with varying genetic expressions. The complex structure of the tumour makes cancer treatment difficult due to the heterogeneity of each of the cancer cells that react differently ...

Monte Carlo-based Noise Compensation in Coil Intensity Corrected Endorectal MRI [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Background: Prostate cancer is one of the most common forms of cancer found in males making early diagnosis important. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has been useful in visualizing and localizing tumor candidates and with the use of endorectal coils ...

Standardization of 123I-meta-iodobenzylguanidine myocardial sympathetic activity imaging: phantom calibration and clinical applications

open access: yesClinical and translational imaging, 2017
PurposeMyocardial sympathetic imaging with 123I-meta-iodobenzylguanidine (123I-mIBG) has gained clinical momentum. Although the need for standardization of 123I-mIBG myocardial uptake has been recognized, the availability of practical clinical ...

Optimization of 2D CT Data Sets for Three-Dimensional [PDF]

open access: yes, 1993
Computer-generated anatomic modeling using radiologic data is a well-known entity. Currently, state of the art 3D modeling systems lack the variable thresholding, user interactive, capabilities of 3D imaging software.1 We investigated clinical ...

Organosilicon phantom for photoacoustic imaging

open access: yesJournal of Biomedical Optics, 2015
Photoacoustic imaging is an emerging technique. Although commercially available photoacoustic imaging systems currently exist, the technology is still in its infancy. Therefore, the design of stable phantoms is essential to achieve semiquantitative evaluation of the performance of a photoacoustic system and can help optimize the properties of contrast ...

EchoFusion: Tracking and Reconstruction of Objects in 4D Freehand Ultrasound Imaging without External Trackers [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Ultrasound (US) is the most widely used fetal imaging technique. However, US images have limited capture range, and suffer from view dependent artefacts such as acoustic shadows. Compounding of overlapping 3D US acquisitions into a high-resolution volume

Developing a Phantom for the Positronium Imaging Evaluation

open access: yesActa Physica Polonica B Proceedings Supplement, 2022
In this contribution, a concept for a new phantom for positronium imaging with PET scanners is described. The proposed phantom is based on the NEMA IEC phantom in which six high-activity spheres are filled with solutions characterized by a different mean ortho-positronium lifetime.

Materials for phantoms for terahertz pulsed imaging [PDF]

open access: yesPhysics in Medicine and Biology, 2004
Phantoms are commonly used in medical imaging for quality assurance, calibration, research and teaching. They may include test patterns or simulations of organs, but in either case a tissue substitute medium is an important component of the phantom. The aim of this work was to identify materials suitable for use as tissue substitutes for the relatively

Assessment of CT Imaging Protocols Impacts on Calculation of Point Dose in Water Phantom using Radiotherapy Treatment Planning System

open access: yesFrontiers in Biomedical Technologies, 2020
Purpose: Point dose calculation in the Treatment Planning System (TPS) is performed using Computed Tomography (CT) images because CT images data have the tissue electron density information.
