Statistical process control to monitor use of a web‐based autoplanning tool
Abstract Purpose To investigate the use of statistical process control (SPC) for quality assurance of an integrated web‐based autoplanning tool, Radiation Planning Assistant (RPA). Methods Automatically generated plans were downloaded and imported into two treatment planning systems (TPSs), RayStation and Eclipse, in which they were recalculated using ...

Volume staging for arteriovenous malformation SRS treatment using VMAT
Abstract Volume staging involves dividing the target volume into smaller parts and treating each part separately. In this study, the feasibility of volume‐staged stereotactic radiosurgery (VS‐SRS) on a linear accelerator using volumetric modulated arc therapy (VMAT) and a frameless patient positioning system is investigated.

Abstract Purpose The aim of this work was to evaluate the SunCHECK PerFRACTION, the software for in vivo monitoring using EPID images. Materials/Methods First, the PerFRACTION ability to detect errors was investigated simulating two situations: (1) variation of LINAC output and (2) variation of the phantom thickness.

Development of novel lightweight and cost-effective Mg–Ce–Al wrought alloy with high strength
The low microalloying content and high yield strength of 365 MPa have been achieved simultaneously in extruded Mg–Ce–Al alloy which is mainly ascribed to the unexpected grain refinement (mean size of ∼420 nm).

The first direct measurement of an anisotropic superconducting property in MgB2 was achieved for the bulk nucleation field Hc2, in a sample of aligned crystallites. It was found a ratio g(T) = Habc2/ Hcc2= 1.6 - 1.9, for T varying from 32 K to 26K, between H applied parallel to the ab plane, and along the c direction.

Anisotropy and NMR spectroscopy [PDF]
Abstract In this paper, different aspects concerning anisotropy in Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) spectroscopy have been reviewed. In particular, the relevant theory has been presented, showing how anisotropy stems from the dependence of internal nuclear spin interactions on the molecular orientation with respect to the external magnetic field ...

Anisotropy of localized states in an anisotropic disordered medium [PDF]
We study Anderson localization of a scalar wave in an ensemble of resonant point scatterers embedded in an anisotropic background medium. For uniaxial anisotropy of moderate strength, the mobility edges and the critical exponent of the localization transition are found to be unaffected by the anisotropy provided that the determinant of the anisotropy ...

Near infrared (NIR)-emitting persistent luminescent nanoparticles have been developed as potential agents for bioimaging. However, synthesizing uniform nanoparticles with long afterglow for long-term imaging is lacking.
