Design, Construction and Evaluation of an Anthropomorphic Head Phantom for Assessment of Image Distortion in Stereotactic Radiosurgery Planning Systems
Introduction: In recent years, the use of magnetic resonance (MR) images in radiation treatment planning has drawn considerable attention. However, although the extent of a tumor can be determined in great detail on MR images, the geometric accuracy of these images is limited by distortions stemming from the inhomogeneity of the static background magnetic field, the nonlineari...
متن کاملA novel anthropomorphic flow phantom for the quantitative evaluation of prostate DCE-MRI acquisition techniques.
A novel anthropomorphic flow phantom device has been developed, which can be used for quantitatively assessing the ability of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scanners to accurately measure signal/concentration time-intensity curves (CTCs) associated with dynamic contrast-enhanced (DCE) MRI. Modelling of the complex pharmacokinetics of contrast agents as they perfuse through the tumour capillar...
متن کاملEvaluation of a constructed head phantom response in comparison with RANDO head phantom in the same gamma field
Human tissue equivalent phantoms are widely used in medicine. They are used for dosimetry, calibration of medical devices, and quality control of radiotherapy equipment, as well as training students. Regarding to development of radiotherapy techniques for treatment of cancers and also development of educational centers in the country, the human equivalent phantoms are needed. Several phantoms h...
متن کاملComprehensive end-to-end test for intensity-modulated radiation therapy for nasopharyngeal carcinoma using an anthropomorphic phantom and EBT3 film
Background: In head and neck radiotherapy, immobilization devices can affect dose delivery. In this study, a comprehensive end-to-end test was developed to evaluate the accuracy of radiotherapy treatment. Materials and Methods: An Alderson Radiation Therapy (ART) anthropomorphic phantom with EBT3 film was used to mimic the actual patient treatment process. Ten patients treated for nasopharyngea...
متن کاملX-ray properties of an anthropomorphic breast phantom for MRI and x-ray imaging.
The purpose of this study is to characterize the x-ray properties of a dual-modality, anthropomorphic breast phantom whose MRI properties have been previously evaluated. The goal of this phantom is to provide a platform for optimization and standardization of two- and three-dimensional x-ray and MRI breast imaging modalities for the purpose of lesion detection and discrimination. The phantom is...
