Phantom description

This phantom is based on a 1mm isotropic segmented head model which was labeled as described in Makris et al.

The segmented head data was converted into a simplified surface model with two compartments: Brain and other soft tissues. Bone and air (both low epsilon, low conductivity) are printed together out of plastic material with similar electrical properties.

Special considerations

The sealing flange uses an o-ring.
