Abstract
General phantom for practical X-ray photography Practical phantom is an indispensable textbook for radiology, but it is difficult for existing commercially available phantom to be equipped with various kinds of phantom because it is an expensive import. Using 3D printing technology, I would like to make the general phantom for practical X-ray photography less expensive and easier. We would like to use a skeleton model that was produced based on CT image data using a 3D printer of FDM (Fused Deposition Modeling) method as a phantom for general X-ray imaging. 3D slicer 4.7.0 program is used to convert CT DICOM image data into STL file, convert it to G-code conversion process, output it to 3D printer, and create skeleton model. The phantom of the completed phantom was photographed by X - ray and CT, and compared with actual medical images and phantoms on the market, there was a detailed difference between actual medical images and bone density, but it could be utilized as a practical phantom. 3D phonemes that can be used for general X-ray practice can be manufactured at low cost by utilizing 3D printers which are low cost and distributed and free 3D slicer program for research. According to the future diversification and research of 3D printing technology, it will be possible to apply to various fields such as health education and medical service.
