Major Field of Science: | Engineering and Technology | Field Category: | Electrical Engineering - Electronic Engineering - Information Engineering | Keywords: | Agar;Focus ultrasound;Magnetic resonance imaging;Phantom;Polyacrylamide;Tumor | Issue Date: | 2024 | Source: | Journal of medical ultrasound,2024, vol 32, no 2 | Volume: | 32 | Issue: | 2 | Project: | MRI-guided Focused ultrasound system for cancer in pets (SOUNDPET) | Journal: | Journal of Medical Ultrasound | Abstract: | Tissue-mimicking phantoms (TMPs) have been used extensively in clinical and nonclinical settings to simulate the thermal effects of focus ultrasound (FUS) technology in real tissue or organs. With recent technological developments in the FUS technology and its monitoring/guided techniques such as ultrasound-guided FUS and magnetic resonance-guided FUS (MRgFUS) the need for TMPs are more important than ever to ensure the safety of the patients before being treated with FUS for a variety of diseases (e.g., cancer or neurological). The purpose of this study was to prepare a tumor-mimicking phantom (TUMP) model that can simulate competently a tumor that is surrounded by healthy tissue. | URI: | https://hdl.handle.net/20.500.14279/32828 | ISSN: | 0929-6441 | DOI: | 10.4103/jmu.jmu_68_23 | Rights: | Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0 International | Type: | Article | Affiliation : | Cyprus University of Technology | Funding: | The project was funded by the Research and Innovation Foundation of Cyprus under the projects SOUNDPET (INTEGRATED/0918/0008) and FUSVET (SEED/1221/0080). | Publication Type: | Peer Reviewed |
