As new ultrasound flow imaging methods are being developed, there is a growing need to devise appropriate flow phantoms that can holistically assess the accuracy of the derived flow estimates. In this paper, we present a novel spiral flow phantom design whose Archimedean spiral lumen naturally gives rise to multi-directional flow over all possible angles (i.e., from 0° to 360°). Developed using lost-core casting principles, the phantom geometry comprised a three-loop spiral (4-mm diameter and 5-mm pitch), and it was set to operate in steady flow mode (3 mL/s flow rate). After characterizing the flow pattern within the spiral vessel using computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations, the phantom was applied to evaluate the performance of color flow imaging (CFI) and high-frame-rate vector flow imaging. Significant spurious coloring artifacts were found when using CFI to visualize flow in the spiral phantom. In contrast, using vector flow imaging (least-squares multi-angle Doppler based on a three-transmit and three-receive configuration), we observed consistent depiction of flow velocity magnitude and direction within the spiral vessel lumen. The spiral flow phantom was also found to be a useful tool in facilitating demonstration of dynamic flow visualization based on vector projectile imaging. Overall, these results demonstrate the spiral flow phantom's practical value in analyzing the efficacy of ultrasound flow estimation methods.
