3D Printed Calibration Micro-phantoms for Validation of Super-Resolution Ultrasound Imaging

Abstract: This study evaluates the use of 3D printed phantoms for super-resolution ultrasound imaging (SRI) algorithm calibration. Stereolithography is used for printing calibration phantoms containing eight randomly placed scatterers of nominal size 205 µm × 205 µm × 200 µm. The purpose is to provide a stable reference for validating new ultrasonic imaging techniques such as SRI. SRI algorithm calibration is demonstrated by imaging a phantom using a λ/2 pitch 3 MHz 62+62 row-column addressed (RCA) ultrasound probe. As … Show more

“…This was beamformed with a F-number of 0.7 and a Hanning apodization for both transmit and receive. Imaging was conducted on a 3-D printed point spread function (PSF) phantom [52] with scattering cavities in a 6 × 4 × 4 grid with a 2.05 mm spacing in all three directions. The scatterers are 205 µm wide along the x − y axes, but only 80 µm in the z direction.…”

“…The imaging capabilities of the probe was evaluated using the SARUS system by scanning a wire phantom, a cyst phantom, and a stereolithography 3D printed hydrogel phantom with isolated 205×205×80 µm 3 embedded cavities, which function as point scatter targets [76]. The scatterers were placed in a 6 × 4 × 4 grid with a spacing of 2.05 mm.…”
