| contents | Prostate cancer is a major global health concern, requiring advancements in robotic surgery and diagnostics to improve patient outcomes. A phantom is a specially designed object that simulates human tissues or organs. It can be used for calibrating and testing a medical process, as well as for training and research purposes. Existing prostate phantoms fail to simulate dynamic scenarios. This paper presents a pneumatically actuated prostate phantom with multiple independently controlled chambers, allowing for precise volumetric adjustments to replicate asymmetric and symmetric benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). The phantom is designed based on shape analysis of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) datasets, modeled with finite element method (FEM), and validated through 3D reconstruction. The simulation results showed strong agreement with physical measurements, achieving average errors of 3.47% in forward modeling and 1.41% in inverse modeling. These results demonstrate the phantom's potential as a platform for validating robotic-assisted systems and for further development toward realistic simulation-based medical training. |
