متن کاملDesign and fabrication of a realistic anthropomorphic heterogeneous head phantom for MR purposes
OBJECTIVE The purpose of this study is to design an anthropomorphic heterogeneous head phantom that can be used for MRI and other electromagnetic applications. MATERIALS AND METHODS An eight compartment, physical anthropomorphic head phantom was developed from a 3T MRI dataset of a healthy male. The designed phantom was successfully built and preliminarily evaluated through an application tha...
متن کاملDesign, 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 کاملDesign of homogeneous and heterogeneous human equivalent thorax phantom for tissue inhomogeneity dose correction using TLD and TPS measurements
Background: The purpose of this study is to fabricate inexpensive in-house low cost homogeneous and heterogeneous human equivalent thorax phantom and assess the dose accuracy of the Treatment Planning Systems (TPS) calculated values for different lung treatment dosimetery. It is compared with Thermoluminescent Dosimeter (TLD) measurement. Materials and Methods: Homogeneous and heterogeneous tho...
متن کاملPhantom Design for Distortion Correction of MR Images
AGNETIC resonance imaging (MRI) provides an excellent modality for distinguishing different tissues in the human body, which is essential for medical applications. When MRI is used for stereotactic treatment planning, its geometric accuracy is crucial. Previous studies have been conducted to correct the distortion caused by nonlinearity of the MRI scanner’s magnetic gradient fields by imaging a...
