- Abstract
- The knowledge of ultrasound contrast agent (UCA) behaviour is continuously improving, mainly thanks to \"in
vitro\" measurements performed by means of specific phantoms, mimicking the acoustic properties of several
human body districts. For such purposes, it is necessary to develop experimental setups able to minimise
chemical and physical effects due to environmental conditions. In this paper we discuss the design of a new
tissue-mimicking phantom, specifically evaluating the sound-absorption properties of three synthetic materials
(Polyurethane, Airex©, ethylene vinyl acetate (EVA©)) laid on the bottom of the phantom. Our goal is to
establish the best material to use in order to minimise the artefacts within the tissue-mimicking matrix.
Polyurethane showed the best sound-absorbent behaviour for every tested ultrasound frequency, so its
employment in covering the bottom of tissue-mimicking phantoms is suggested in order to allow experimental
investigations of acoustic properties of different UCAs without additional aspects due to environmental
boundary conditions. (literal)
