The phantom reflects the complex anatomy of the arteries, veins, nerves, and other surrounding organs, and the printing materials and techniques were adjusted to represent the texture and color of the actual structures. Using this phantom, patients and clinicians completed surveys on the usefulness of this 3D\u2010printed thyroid cancer phantom. Participants: patients (<jats:italic>n<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u200933) and clinicians (<jats:italic>n<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u200910).<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>In the patient survey, the patients communicated that the quality of understanding of their thyroid disease status was enhanced when clinicians explained using the phantom.
