A brief review for common doppler ultrasound flow phantoms
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]
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.

Development of quality standards for multi-center, longitudinal magnetic resonance imaging studies in clinical neuroscience [PDF]
Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) data is generated by a complex procedure. Many possible sources of error exist which can lead to a worse signal. For example, hidden defective components of a MRI-scanner, changes in the static magnetic field caused by a ...

Automatic phantom test pattern classification through transfer learning with deep neural networks [PDF]
Imaging phantoms are test patterns used to measure image quality in computer tomography (CT) systems. A new phantom platform (Mercury Phantom, Gammex) provides test patterns for estimating the task transfer function (TTF) or noise power spectrum (NPF) and simulates different patient sizes.

3D microwave tomography with huber regularization applied to realistic numerical breast phantoms [PDF]
Quantitative active microwave imaging for breast cancer screening and therapy monitoring applications requires adequate reconstruction algorithms, in particular with regard to the nonlinearity and ill-posedness of the inverse problem.
