Zusammenfassung: | Disclosed herein is a method of manufacturing an anthropomorphic phantom 100 for use as a medical ultrasonography training aid. The phantom comprises a plurality of components representing anatomical features 102,103,104. The method comprises, for each component, generating a three-dimensional model of the component based on patient medical scan data; forming, using an additive manufacturing technique, a mould based on the three-dimensional model; selecting a material for the component with ultrasound reflection properties that correspond with the ultrasound reflection properties of the anatomical feature that the component represents; and forming the component from the selected material using the mould. The method further comprises assembling the plurality of components to form the phantom. |
