A tissue-mimicking prostate phantom for 980 nm laser interstitial thermal therapy

A tissue-mimicking prostate phantom for 980 nm laser interstitial thermal therapy

Purpose: To develop a phantom with optical and thermal properties matched to human prostate. This phantom will provide a platform for the development and characterization of 980 nm laser interstitial thermal therapy (LITT) systems. Methods: A polyacrylamide gel was doped with Naphthol Green B, Intra...
