A 3D printed modular phantom for quality assurance of image‐guided small animal irradiators: Design, imaging experiments, and Monte Carlo simulations

Purpose The goal of this work was to develop and test a cylindrical tissue‐equivalent quality assurance (QA) phantom for micro computed tomography (microCT) image‐guided small animal irradiators that overcomes deficiencies of existing phantoms due to its mouse‐like dimensions and composition. Method...
