Tunable phantoms and their verification

Abstract

Digital phantoms are very important for body area networks and other biomedical applications. However, it is important to note that most existing phantoms are static, including 3D scanned and voxel models. Recent research has revealed that tunable phantoms are still very necessary for body area networks since various postures should be considered. In this paper, parameterized digital phantoms are generated from 2D images. The train of thought and results presented in the paper are worth reference for phantom researchers.
