Characterization of 3D printing techniques: Toward patient specific quality assurance spine-shaped phantom for stereotactic body radiation therapy

Publishing date: 2017-05-04

Published on: PLOS ONE

summary: This study suggests that a 3D-printed phantom simulating a high-density (about 1.4 g/cm3) organ can be created based on CT images and that a developed 3D printed spine phantom could be utilized in patient-specific quality assurance for stereotactic body radiation therapy.
