An anthropomorphic polyvinyl alcohol brain phantom based on Colin27 for use in multimodal imaging

Abstract: The methods for building the anatomically accurate, multimodality phantom were described in this work. All multimodal data are made available freely to the image processing community (http://pvabrain.inria.fr). We believe the phantom images could allow for the validation and further aid in the development of novel medical image processing techniques.

“…Such materials may also have mechanical properties to make clinical simulators behave analogously to real tissue while making imaging techniques more repeatable. 8,9 The goal of this research was to study the mechanical and medical imaging properties of a multimodal tissue-mimicking material, namely, polyvinyl chloride (PVC).…”

“…Chmarra et al 17 developed an agarose based liver phantom to get images from ultrasound imaging, MRI, and CT modalities similar to those of patients. Chen et al 9 created a polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) brain phantom that could be used to validate the results of ultrasound, MRI, and CT imaging. Table I summarizes results of prior research on some mechanical and medical imaging properties of nine common tissue-mimicking materials [agar, agarose, gelatin, gellan gum, PVA, PVC, room-temperature vulcanizing (RTV) polymerized siloxanes (silicone), polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS), and polyurethane (PU)] and five types of tissues from human and animals (liver, brain, fat, muscle, and prostate).…”

“…1 In the specific context of brain MRI, a limited number of physical phantoms with increased similarity to the real counterpart, both in terms of tissue intensities and shape, have been developed in the past years. [3][4][5][6][7][8] However, some of those just mimicked 1 tissue, 7,8 some required the presence of walls separating different compartments to maintain the shape, 5,6 and some others produced non-realistic or substantially simplified contours of the brain or brain regions. [3][4][5][6]8 To overcome those limitations, we propose an innovative design for the construction of a 3D brain phantom that resembles the anatomy of the main brain tissue types and produces T 1 relaxation times corresponding to those observed in vivo.…”

“…5,6 To this end, phantom experiments constitute a mandatory milestone toward development, evaluation, and validation of novel CMR imaging techniques. Phantom experiments facilitate detailed examinations of MR methods, 7,8 should enable reproducible measurements, and provide proximity to physiology. Static phantoms providing physiological MR parameters such as T 1 , T 2 , T 2 *, and proton density facilitate the development, testing, and validation of sequences targeting static organs before volunteer and patient studies are conducted.…”

To test CMR imaging techniques, a dynamic phantom mimicking cardiovascular and respiratory motion is required.…”
