Novel tissue mimicking materials for high frequency breast ultrasound phantoms.
The development and acoustical characterisation of a range of novel agar-based tissue mimicking material (TMMs) for use in clinically relevant, quality assurance (QA) and anthropomorphic breast phantoms are presented. The novel agar-based TMMs described in this study are based on a comprehensive, systematic variation of the ingredients in the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) TMM....
متن کاملUltrasonic Attenuation and Speed in phantoms made of PVCP and Evaluation of acoustic and thermal properties of ultrasonic phantoms made of polyvinyl chloride-plastisol (PVCP)
Biological phantoms are commonly used on biomedical ultrasound research, but they have some limitation. We have been studying the acoustic and thermal properties of polyvinyl chloride-plastisol (PVCP) that have longer time stability. We estimated thermal conductivity in steady-state methods and specific heat with Method of Mixture. PVCP blocks were made with different graphite and PVC powders c...
متن کاملUltrasound-Induced Bubble Clusters in Tissue-Mimicking Agar Phantoms.
Therapeutic ultrasound can drive bubble activity that damages soft tissues. To study the potential mechanisms of such injury, transparent agar tissue-mimicking phantoms were subjected to multiple pressure wave bursts of the kind being considered specifically for burst wave lithotripsy. A high-speed camera recorded bubble activity during each pulse. Various agar concentrations were used to alter...
متن کاملTissue-mimicking oil-in-gelatin dispersions for use in heterogeneous elastography phantoms.
A ten-month study is presented of materials for use in heterogeneous elastography phantoms. The materials consist of gelatin with or without a suspension of microscopic safflower oil droplets. The highest volume percent of oil in the materials is 50%. Thimerosal acts as a preservative. The greater the safflower oil concentration, the lower the Young's modulus. Elastographic data for heterogeneo...
متن کاملTissue-mimicking agar/gelatin materials for use in heterogeneous elastography phantoms.
Five 9 cm x 9 cm x 9 cm phantoms, each with a 2-cm-diameter cylindrical inclusion, were produced with various dry-weight concentrations of agar and gelatin. Elastic contrasts ranged from 1.5 to 4.6, and values of the storage modulus (real part of the complex Young's modulus) were all in the soft tissue range. Additives assured immunity from bacterial invasion and can produce tissue-mimicking ul...
