Breast phantoms are a fundamental asset both in routine quality assurance programs and
for comparing scanner performance in 2D and 3D x-ray breast imaging. They also play an …

Virtual clinical trials (VCT) have been developed by a number of groups to study breast
imaging applications, with the focus on digital breast tomosynthesis imaging. In this review …

Background Understanding the magnitude and variability of the radiation dose absorbed by
the breast fibroglandular tissue during mammography and digital breast tomosynthesis …

To generate evidence regarding the safety and efficacy of artificial intelligence (AI) enabled
medical devices, AI models need to be evaluated on a diverse population of patient cases …

Randomized clinical trials, while often viewed as the highest evidentiary bar by which to
judge the quality of a medical intervention, are far from perfect. In silico imaging trials are …

Simple Summary Virtual clinical trials in X-ray breast imaging may permit substantial
reduction of the costs, times, and exposure risk to patient of clinical trials. Monte Carlo …

Objective. This work describes an approach for producing physical anthropomorphic breast
phantoms from clinical patient data using three-dimensional (3D) fused-deposition …

Purpose To design, fabricate and characterize 3D printed, anatomically realistic,
compressed breast phantoms for digital mammography (DM) and digital breast …

Objective. To measure the monoenergetic x-ray linear attenuation coefficient, μ, of fused
deposition modeling (FDM) colored 3D printing materials (ABS, PLA white, PLA orange, PET …

Purpose To evaluate the bias to the mean glandular dose (MGD) estimates introduced by
the homogeneous breast models in digital breast tomosynthesis (DBT) and to have an …
