Abstract
Tissue phantoms for near infrared fluorescence imaging consisting of quantum dots embedded in hard polymer has become the material of choice as calibrator for near infrared fluorescence imaging. Through a calibration process, it can acquire International Standard (SI) units of light, which advances its utility as a possible reference standard for the fluorescence guided imaging community. In this paper I will discuss the calibration steps, and how the calibrated tissue phantoms can be used as a standard by both the imaging device and contrast agent developer.
