Zusammenfassung:A phantom is disclosed containing fluorescence properties similar to anatomy that is needed to be visualized during surgical procedures. The phantom is created using substances including fluorophores that respond to UV light excitation to give visual cues of the phantom. The phantom can vary in phase and fluorescent properties depending on what it needs to simulate in the medical field with the purpose to help train users for surgical and diagnostic procedures, and develop, enhance, and calibrate imaging technology.
