title: Epoxy resin based tissue substitutes.
abstract: A series of epoxy resin based tissue substitutes, simulating adipose tissue, bone, breast, lung, muscle and skin is described. Details of the physical radiation characteristics of the formulated systems are given, together with the manufacturing procedures. The versatility of the range of substitutes is discussed in terms of both investigated and projected applications in experimental radiation studies.
