Abstract
A phantom is proposed for quality control and calibration of instruments used for transillumination of the breast for early detection of cancer. A container is filled with a material having optical properties very similar to those of breast tissue, and internal objects are viewed by transmitted light. The phantom can be used to optimize operating conditions for the visualization of small or deep-seated lesions.Entities:
