CT phantom with 3D anthropomorphic, contrast-enhanced texture

Conference Progress in Biomedical Optics and Imaging Proceedings of SPIE · January 1, 2020 Physical phantoms with realistic anatomical texture and composition (including contrast media) are of high value and relevance in evaluating the performance of clinical computed tomography (CT) imaging systems. They can offer assessments of image quality i ... Full text Cite

Using inkjet 3D printing to create contrast-enhanced textured physical phantoms for CT

Conference Progress in Biomedical Optics and Imaging Proceedings of SPIE · January 1, 2019 Anthropomorphic phantoms can serve as anatomically structured tools for assessing clinical computed tomography (CT) imaging systems. The aim of this project is to create highly customized 3D inkjet-printed, contrast-enhanced physical liver phantoms for use ... Full text Cite

Controlling the position-dependent contrast of 3D printed physical phantoms with a single material

Conference Progress in Biomedical Optics and Imaging Proceedings of SPIE · January 1, 2019 Custom 3D printed physical phantoms are desired for testing the limits of medical imaging, and for providing patientspecific information. This work focuses on the development of low-cost, open source fused filament fabrication for printing of physical phan ... Full text Cite

Single-Crystal Electrochemistry Reveals Why Metal Nanowires Grow.

Conference Journal of the American Chemical Society · November 2018 Shape-control is used to tune the properties of metal nanostructures in applications ranging from catalysts to touch screens, but the origins of anisotropic growth of metal nanocrystals in solution are unknown. We show single-crystal electrochemistry can t ... Full text Cite

Exploring silver contact morphologies in printed carbon nanotube thin-film transistors
