Training phantom for ultrasound with a tissue-mimicking material.
In the past, many ultrasound phantoms, with tissue-mimicking material, have been created for routine testing and calibration ultrasound scanning systems, especially to decide the accuracy of transducers in a standardized medium. Following the introduction of the color doppler, several phantoms were developed for validating quantitative measurements such as blood flow. In addition to these applications, phantoms are available to enhance the learning process in echografical skills in general.
