Abstract

Research and development of optical phantoms is a growing and popular field, but it suffers from the same inequities that exist in our overall healthcare system- the lack of research into optical phantoms that represent different skin tones, genders, and body types. We are developing a library of multilayered liquid and solid phantoms with vastly different light absorbing and light scattering properties at differing wavelengths, focusing particularly on the optical properties of the uterine tissue. Our multilayer phantoms mimicking the pelvic region where the uterus lies also incorporate various properties that replicate different thicknesses of adipose tissue and skin pigmentation.
