3D‐printed neck phantoms with detailed anatomy for ultrasound‐guided procedure and device testing

With rapid advances in ultrasound‐guided procedures, there is an unmet need for echogenic phantoms with sufficient anatomical details for artificial intelligence and ultrasound‐guided device testing. We developed a method for creating neck phantoms for novel otolaryngology‐related device testing. To achieve accurate representation of the anatomy, we utilized CT scans and 3D printing technology to create customized agar molds, thus providing high‐fidelity yet cost‐effective tools.
