Abstract:

The surface dose on electron irradiation which is received by the skin does not reach 100%, so a bolus is needed as a compensator material in order to reach or approach 100%. This study aims to create, test, and describe the effect of different thicknesses of boluses that are made of 3D printed TPU, silicone sealant and resin on equivalence with tissue and the percentage of surface dose produced. A bolus with a size of 15x15 cm2 and with variations in thickness of 0.3 cm, 0.5 cm, and 1 cm was imaged by a CT-Scan to analyze the CT-Number value and relative electron density using imageJ software

Abstract:

AbstractAimThe treatment planning system (TPS) plays a key role in radiotherapy treatments; it is responsible for the accurate determination of the monitor unit (MU) needed to be delivered to treat a patient with cancer. The main goal of radiotherapy is to sterilise the tumour; however, any imprecise dose delivered could lead to deadly consequences. The TPS has a quality assurance tool, an independent program to double check the MU, evaluate patient plan correctness and search for any potential error.Materials and methodsIn this work, a comparison was carried out between a MU calculated by TPS

Abstract Phantoms are essential for assessing the system performance in Electrical Impedance Tomography (EIT). Saline phantoms with insulator inhomogeneity fail to mimic the physiological structure of real body tissue in several aspects. Saline or any other salt solution is purely resistive and hence studying multifrequency EIT systems cannot be assessed with saline phantoms because the response of the purely resistive materials do not change over frequency. Animal tissues show a variable response over a wide band of signal frequency due to their complex physiological and physiochemical struct

Polymer gel dosimeters were being fabricated using a monomer named 2-Hydroxyl-Ethyl-Meta-Acrylate (HEMA) with the presence of gelatine as a gelling agent. The readymade gel which is the concentration for HEMA fixed at 2, 4 and 5% would then undergo an ultrasonic evaluation to test for the propagation of sound speed through it. In the observation of relationship between the ultrasound propag

Abstract:

To develop a modular anthropomorphic phantom to evaluate the performance of radiological techniques for detecting pathologies in the temporal bone region. A phantom was constructed using a human skull, temporal bone specimen, and 3D-printed contour of a human skull. The human skull was embedded in tissue-equivalent plastic, with a cavity to hold the plastic jars containing the exchangeable freshly frozen human temporal bones. Subsequently, stepwise introduction and examination of different clinicopathological scenarios were conducted. Radiological images were nearly identical to those acquired

This study aimed to construct a tissue-equivalent anthropomorphic phantom using 3D printing to enable dosimetry with radiochromic films of the optical apparatus in external beam radiotherapy. Slices were developed based on and intended to be used in conjunction with the reference phantom ATOM. 3D printing with polylactic acid (PLA) was utilized to represent soft tissues, while a mixture of gypsum, salt, and water was used as a skull bone simulator. The validation of the phantom was conducted through Hounsfield Units (HU) assessments to verify the homogeneity and compatibility with the ATOM pha

ABSTRACT The purpose of the present study was to develop a hybrid magnetic resonance/computed tomography (MR/CT)-compatible phantom and tissue-equivalent materials for each MR and CT image. Therefore, the essential requirements necessary for the development of a hybrid MR/CT-compatible phantom were determined and the development process is described. A total of 12 different tissue-equivalent materials for each MR and CT image were developed from chemical components. The uniformity of each sample was calculated.

Objective Despite the high risk of missing lesions in mammography, the missed lesion rate is yet to be clinically established. Further, no breast phantoms with adjustable breast density currently exist. We developed a novel, adjustable-density breast phantom with a composition identical to that of actual breasts, and determined the quantitative relationship between breast density and the missed lesion rate in mammography.

Abstract:

ABSTRACT Quantification of pathological progression of radiation-induced injury is essential in development of treatment methods, and a proper animal model is necessary for relevant radiological and medical studies. A minipig is a current animal model selected because of its similarities to humans in anatomy and pathology. In the present study, a minipig physical phantom was developed using computed tomography (CT) data. For dosimetry purposes, the minipig physical phantom was constructed on a slice-by-slice basis, with an array of holes to accommodate dosimeters. The phantom is constituted of

Abstract:

In vivo internal dosimetry can use a whole-body counter (WBC) to estimate radionuclides' incorporated activity (Bq) in internally contaminated individuals. The WBC must be calibrated to convert the count rate from the detector into activity incorporated in the person. Active physical phantoms could be used for the calibration procedure. Additive manufacturing allows the physical reproduction of ICRP computational models with good geometric fidelity.

Background: Different compositions of DSF/NaOH/IA-PAE/R. spp. composite particleboard phantoms were constructed. Methods: Photon attenuation characteristics were ascertained using gamma rays from 137Cs and 60Co. Absorbed doses at the location of an ionization chamber and Gafchromic EBT3 radiochromic films were calculated for high-energy photons (6 and 10 MV) and electrons (6, 9, 12, and 15 MeV). Results: The calculated TPR20,10 values indicate that the percentage discrepancy for 6 and 10 MV was in the range of 0.29–0.72% and 0.26–0.65%. It was also found that the relative difference in the dma

In this paper, the optical properties of skin lesion are determined with the help of laser reflectometry. The result is compared with the phantom and simulation values to obtain an accurate result. Surface backscattering is determined by laser reflectometry. The tissue-equivalent phantom is prepared with the help of white paraffin wax mixed with various color pigments in multiple proportions. A familiar Monte Carlo simulation is used to analyze the optical properties of the tissue.
