Automatic Synthesis of Anthropomorphic Pulmonary CT Phantoms
The great density and structural complexity of pulmonary vessels and airways impose limitations on the generation of accurate reference standards, which are critical in training and in the validation of image processing methods for features such as pulmonary vessel segmentation or artery-vein (AV) separations. The design of synthetic computed tomography (CT) images of the lung could overcome th...
متن کاملObject Oriented Design of Anthropomorphic Phantoms and Geant4-based Implementations
Various models of anthropomorphic phantoms have been developed in the past decades for usage in Monte Carlo simulation for radiation protection and other medical physics applications; they adopt two alternative approaches, either modelling the body components through analytical geometrical representations or through voxelized geometries. An original system has been developed associated with the...
متن کاملConstruction of anthropomorphic phantoms for use in dosimetry studies
This paper reports on the methodology and materials used to construct anthropomorphic phantoms for use in dosimetry studies, improving on methods and materials previously described by Jones et al. [Med Phys. 2006;33(9):3274-82]. To date, the methodology described has been successfully used to create a series of three different adult phantoms at the University of Florida (UF). All phantoms were ...
متن کاملOptimized generation of high resolution breast anthropomorphic software phantoms.
PURPOSE The authors present an efficient method for generating anthropomorphic software breast phantoms with high spatial resolution. Employing the same region growing principles as in their previous algorithm for breast anatomy simulation, the present method has been optimized for computational complexity to allow for fast generation of the large number of phantoms required in virtual clinical...
متن کاملRealistic Simulation of Breast Tissue Microstructure in Software Anthropomorphic Phantoms
Software anthropomorphic breast phantoms have been used in virtual clinical trials for preclinical validation of breast imaging systems. Virtual trial quality depends largely on the realism of the simulated breast anatomy. Our phantom design has been focused on the simulation of large-scale and mesoscale anatomical structures, including the breast outline, skin, and matrix of Cooper’s ligaments...
