A radiopaque 3D printed, anthropomorphic phantom for simulation of CT-guided procedures.

Abstract:

OBJECTIVES:To develop an anthropomorphic phantom closely mimicking patient anatomy and to evaluate the phantom for the simulation of computed tomography (CT)-guided procedures. METHODS:Patient CT images were printed with aqueous potassium iodide solution (1 g/mL) on paper. The printed paper sheets were stacked in alternation with 1-mm thick polyethylene foam layers, cut to the patient shape and glued together to create an anthropomorphic abdomen phantom. Ten interventional radiologists performed periradicular infiltration on the phantom and rated the phantom procedure regarding different aspects of suitability for simulating CT-guided procedures. RESULTS:Radiopaque printing in combination with polyethylene foam layers achieved a phantom with detailed patient anatomy that allowed needle placement. CT-guided periradicular infiltration on the phantom was rated highly realistic for simulation of anatomy, needle navigation and overall course of the procedure. Haptics were rated as intermediately realistic. Participants strongly agreed that the phantom was suitable for training and learning purposes. CONCLUSIONS:A radiopaque 3D printed, anthropomorphic phantom provides a realistic platform for the simulation of CT-guided procedures. Future work will focus on application for training and procedure optimisation. KEY POINTS:• Radiopaque 3D printing combined with polyethylene foam achieves patient phantoms for CT-guided procedures. • Radiopaque 3D printed, anthropomorphic phantoms allow realistic simulation of CT-guided procedures. • Realistic visual guidance is a key aspect in simulation of CT-guided procedures. • Three-dimensional printed phantoms provide a platform for training and optimisation of CT-guided procedures.
