Localization accuracy of 6‐second CBCT for lung IGRT with various breathing patterns

open access: yesJournal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose The 6‐second cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) acquisition of the Ethos HyperSight (Varian Medical Systems, Inc. Palo Alto, CA, USA) on‐board imaging system offers benefits, but could be too fast to accurately capture an average target position in a free‐breathing lung cancer patient. This study aimed to ascertain whether a 6‐second

Accuracy and reproducibility of a single‐pose image‐to‐robot registration method for mobile C‐arm cone beam CT guided histotripsy

open access: yesJournal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Histotripsy is a focal tumor therapy that utilizes focused ultrasound (US) to mechanically destroy tissue. To overcome visualization limitations of diagnostic US‐guidance, C‐arm cone beam CT (CBCT)‐guided histotripsy is being developed, for which a mobile C‐arm could increase accessibility. CBCT‐guided histotripsy uses a phantom with a

Stochastic Optimization and Worst-Case Analysis in Monetary Policy Design [PDF]

open access: yes
In this paper we compare expected loss minimization to worst-case or minimax analysis in the design of simple Taylor-style rules for monetary policy using a small model estimated for the euro area by Orphanides and Wieland (2000).

Patients' Global Impression of Change (PGIC) Score Compared to Monthly Migraine Days to Evaluate Treatment Persistence With Anti‐CGRP Monoclonal Antibodies

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study assessed whether continued treatment with anti‐CGRP monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) is driven more by reductions in monthly migraine days (MMDs) or patients' global impression of change (PGIC), a patient‐reported outcome. Among 169 patients treated with anti‐CGRP mAbs, 21.3% discontinued due to ineffectiveness. PGIC responders (≥ 5) at
