[0118]To demonstrate proof of concept a polyvinyl alcohol cryogel (PVA-C) phantom was created and analyzed using the device shown in FIG. 1. During the validation study, the material was subjected to stress using an ultrasound transducer and strain was assessed from the ultrasound images using a manual measurement. FIG. 13 shows the computed stress-strain curve on one gel sample. The measured stress-strain curve was monotonic linear (R2>0.99), with an inherent dampening offset of 2.4996 kPa. The Young's modulus in this test was 30.291 kPa, which is similar to values for this material that are reported in the literature. See, e.g., Fromageau et al., “Estimation of polyvinyl alcohol cryogel mechanical properties with four ultrasound elastography methods and comparison with gold standard testings,”Ultrasonics, Ferroelectrics and Frequency Control, IEEE Transactions on, vol. 54, no. 3, pp. 498-509, March 2007 and Fromageau et al., “Characterization of PVA cryogel for intravascular ultrasou
