Table 1.

Compliance, k_p (m²Pa⁻¹), static pulse wave velocity estimate, c_static (ms⁻¹), and the effective elastic modulus, E_eff(kPa), measured using static testing for each phantom. Values are given at a diameter of 8.7mm, which is approximately the diameter in the phantom PWI experiments. E_eff is the elastic modulus of a tube of the average phantom thickness (3.64mm) which gives the appropriate k_p
