Abstract :
This paper describes a study of automatic composition design software for human body-equivalent phantoms. Based on adaptive multiple regression analysis, this software enables engineers to efficiently design a target phantom for experiments. The materials water, silicone emulsion, glycerin, sodium chloride, and agar can be used to compose human body-equivalent phantoms. This paper will also present measurement results for two designs using the developed software.
