+summary: Our work combines 3D printing with UV curable hydrogels to make boundaryless 3D phantoms that mimic human anatomy. Current phantoms are built by casting gel into silicone molds. We are actively exploring numerous routes to directly print the gels. These include inkjet, extrusion, SLA, and rapid liquid printing.

+Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a safe and powerful imaging modality. Researchers are constantly developing new methods and techniques to make imaging faster and higher quality. To validate these methods they need phantoms; devices used in place of a live subject. As MRI, specifically quantitative MRI, evolves and grows, so does the need for reliable and realistic quantitative phantoms. Generally, MRI phantoms consist of fluid or gel containing ions or nanoparticles, sealed into containers with simple geometry, such as cylinders or spheres. Current research focuses on developing standardized, quantitative phantoms that are biologically accurate. The sophistication of these phantoms is generally limited because it is difficult to achieve anatomical 3D geometry and mimic the contrast of  multiple tissue types, especially without boundaries between sections. \
+Our project focuses on achieving highly realistic anatomical geometry in combination with biological contrast values to create phantoms that are precise and quantitative. These highly precise phantoms present potential for accelerated development of quantitative MRI, as they are used for machine calibration, technological development, and can be used in the place of human test subjects.
 
-Every project has a beautiful feature showcase page.
-It's easy to include images in a flexible 3-column grid format.
-Make your photos 1/3, 2/3, or full width.
-
-To give your project a background in the portfolio page, just add the img tag to the front matter like so:

-You can also put regular text between your rows of images.
-Say you wanted to write a little bit about your project before you posted the rest of the images.
-You describe how you toiled, sweated, _bled_ for your project, and then... you reveal its glory in the next row of images.

-The code is simple.
-Just wrap your images with `<div class="col-sm">` and place them inside `<div class="row">` (read more about the <a href="https://getbootstrap.com/docs/4.4/layout/grid/">Bootstrap Grid</a> system).
-To make images responsive, add `img-fluid` class to each; for rounded corners and shadows use `rounded` and `z-depth-1` classes.
-Here's the code for the last row of images above:
