TomoPhantom: software package to generate 2D–4D phantoms for CT image reconstruction algorithm benchmarks

This poster describes the use and launch of TomoPhantom; a software based phantom generation toolkit. Within CT imaging many novel reconstruction techniques are routinely tested using simplistic numerical phantoms. This package has been needed for a long time across user groups; and it now allows users to have quick access to an external library to create advanced modular analytical 2D/3D phantoms with temporal extensions. Code has just been released and available at https://github.com/dkazanc/TomoPhantom as well as published in a use case paper in SoftwareX.
