Abstract:IntroductionThe development and optimization of novel diagnostic imaging prototypes heavily rely on experimental work. In radiology, this experimental work involves the use of phantoms. When testing novel techniques to demonstrate their advantages, anthropomorphic phantoms are utilized. The aim of this study was to investigate seven materials for 3D printing to replicate the radiological properties of breast lesions.MethodsTo achieve this objective, we utilized three fused filament fabrication materials, namel… Show more
