When scientists develop new optical techniques and instruments for medical diagnosis, surgery, or light-based therapy, those techniques and instruments must be validated and calibrated through extensive testing. The test runs are usually performed on "optical phantoms," objects specially designed to mimic a specific type of tissue. Phantoms facilitate several tasks, including calibration, assessment of a tool's resolution, and post-processing algorithm validation.
