Technical Note: Multipurpose CT, ultrasound, and MRI breast phantom for use in radiotherapy and minimally invasive interventions

Abstract

We have developed a process to efficiently and inexpensively produce multipurpose breast phantoms containing simulated tumors visible on CT, ultrasound, and MRI. The phantoms have been evaluated for image quality and elasticity and can serve as a medium for DIR QA, autosegmentation QA, and training for minimally invasive procedures.
