Position‐dependent offset corrections for ring applicator reconstruction in cervical cancer brachytherapy

open access: yesJournal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Due to the tight curvature in their design, ring applicators are usually associated with large positioning errors. The standard practice to correct for these deviations based on global offsets may not be sufficient to comply with the recommended tolerance.

Note on a role for entire functions of the classes P and P*

open access: yesInternational Journal of Mathematics and Mathematical Sciences, 1981
We use the B and B* operators of Levin on the Classes P and P* and a comparison principle to prove a Gauss-Lucas Theorem for differential operators. The connection with the determination of final sets for differential operators is then clarified.

Evaluation of dosimetric and spatial accuracy of a virtual cone technique for radiosurgery using linac‐integrated CBCT‐based polymer gel dosimetry

open access: yesJournal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose This study evaluates the dosimetric and geometric precision of a virtual cone technique using CBCT‐based polymer gel dosimetry, enabling radiation delivery, and imaging readout within an identical spatial coordinate system. Methods We created a C# script for a virtual cone technique that generates a treatment plan with 10 gantry arcs ...

Boundary differentiability for inhomogeneous infinity Laplace equations

open access: yesElectronic Journal of Differential Equations, 2014
We study the boundary regularity of the solutions to inhomogeneous infinity Laplace equations. We prove that if $u\in C(\bar{\Omega})$ is a viscosity solution to $\Delta_{\infty}u:=\sum_{i,j=1}^n u_{x_i}u_{x_j}u_{x_ix_j}=f$ with $f\in C(\Omega)\cap L^

Fast, automated optimization of virtual monoenergetic images with the dual‐energy image synthesizer for cone‐beam CT

open access: yesJournal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Dual‐energy cone‐beam CT (DE‐CBCT) has become subject of recent interest due to the ability to produce virtual monoenergetic images (VMIs) with improved soft‐tissue contrast and reduced nonuniformity artifacts. However, efficient production and optimization of VMIs remains an under‐explored part of DE‐CBCT's application.

Exponential stability of traveling fronts for a 2D lattice delayed differential equation with global interaction

open access: yesElectronic Journal of Differential Equations, 2013
The purpose of this paper is to study traveling wave fronts of a two-dimensional (2D) lattice delayed differential equation with global interaction. Applying the comparison principle combined with the technical weighted-energy method, we prove that ...

Comparison Principles for subelliptic equations of Monge-Ampere type [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2008
We present two comparison principles for viscosity sub- and supersolutions of Monge-Ampere-type equations associated to a family of vector fields. In particular, we obtain the uniqueness of a viscosity solution to the Dirichlet problem for the equation of prescribed horizontal Gauss curvature in a Carnot group.
