We propose a new, user-friendly and accessible approach for fabricating thin phantoms with
controllable absorption properties in magnitude, spectral shape, and spatial distribution. We …

Standardized phantoms and test methods are needed to accelerate clinical translation of
emerging photoacoustic imaging (PAI) devices. Evaluating object detectability in PAI is …

Phantoms are test objects used for initial testing and optimization of medical imaging
techniques, but these rarely capture the complex properties of the tissue. Here we introduce …

Abstract Styrene-ethylene/butylene-styrene (SEBS) copolymer-in-mineral oil gel is an
