Abstract
Breast phantom made as combination of paraffin and INTRALIPID™ was tested by use of X-ray classical computed tomography and polarimetric optical tomography. The INTRALIPID™ is a liquid commonly used for simulation breast tissues optical properties but it is useless as X-ray phantom. During our tests we have observed that X-ray tomography allows to recognize a proper placement of INTRALIPID™ inclusions inside paraffin medium but we cannot distinguish density of INTRALIPID™ within each inclusions. On the other hand the polarimetric optical tomography allows to distinguish density of INTRALIPID™ (0%, 10%, 20%) in inclusions but with relatively low accuracy of their placement.
