Organosilicon phantom for photoacoustic imaging
Journal 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 ...

A review of carotid artery phantoms for doppler ultrasound applications
Journal of Medical Ultrasound, 2021 Ultrasound imaging systems need tissue-mimicking phantoms with a good range of acoustic properties. Many studies on carotid artery phantoms have been carried out using ultrasound; hence this study presents a review of the different forms of carotid ...

The validity and reliability of the exposure index as a metric for estimating the radiation dose to the patient [PDF]
, 2020 Introduction With the introduction of digital radiography, the feedback between image quality and over-exposure has been partly lost which in some cases has led to a steady increase in dose.

Spherical deconvolution of multichannel diffusion MRI data with non-Gaussian noise models and spatial regularization [PDF]
, 2015 Spherical deconvolution (SD) methods are widely used to estimate the intra-voxel white-matter fiber orientations from diffusion MRI data. However, while some of these methods assume a zero-mean Gaussian distribution for the underlying noise, its real ...

A brief review for common doppler ultrasound flow phantoms
Journal of Medical Ultrasound, 2020 In this review, the flow phantoms and the wall-less flow phantoms with recognized acoustic features (attenuation and speed of sound), interior properties, and dimensions of tissue were prepared, calibrated, and characterized by Doppler ultrasound (US ...

Development and application of stable phantoms for the evaluation of photoacoustic imaging instruments. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 Photoacoustic imaging combines the high contrast of optical imaging with the spatial resolution and penetration depth of ultrasound. This technique holds tremendous potential for imaging in small animals and importantly, is clinically translatable.
