Handmade bone phantom as educational media for image processing studies

This paper describe our design and implementation of lowcost handmade bone phantom ultrasound and its possibilities to be used as educational media for image processing studies. In our research, a segmentation algorithm and 3D reconstruction method had been developed and tested using bone phantom. During test, bone phantom showed capabilities as an assistive tool to explain, analyze, and test image processing algorithm, in this case segmentation algorithm and 3D reconstruction method. That capabilities, coupled with its low producing cost show the possibilities of using the bone phantom as an effective educational media for image processing studies.
