The study of characteristics of flat panel detectors without semiconductor conversion layers for therapeutic high-energy X-ray radiation

open access: yesNuclear Engineering and Technology
We evaluated a novel 2-D flat-panel detector (FPD) adapting it for megavoltage (MV) therapeutic imaging and radiation QA. The prototype uses a thick dielectric layer to create a semi-transmissive structure, changing and eliminating structure conventional

Dwelling in a post‐fallout landscape: re‐shaping and sustaining life in a former evacuation zone in Fukushima Habiter après la catastrophe : redonner forme au monde et entretenir la vie dans une ancienne zone évacuée à Fukushima

open access: yesJournal of the Royal Anthropological Institute, EarlyView.
This article explores the activities of daily life in a village neighbouring the TEPCO nuclear power plant in Fukushima. It argues that one of the potentials of taking a dwelling perspective – a phenomenological approach to living within the ecological and social environments – emerges most compellingly within a polluted landscape.

HYPERSCALING HOUSING: Venture Capital, Real Estate Start‐Ups and the Race to Build a Global Residential Brand

open access: yesInternational Journal of Urban and Regional Research, EarlyView.
Abstract What happens when venture capitalists try to reinvent housing in their own image? Synonymous with the rise of Big Tech, venture capitalists (VCs) are asset managers that invest in early‐stage companies, pursuing aggressive growth and market domination. Since the 2008 financial crisis, VCs have poured huge sums into real estate start‐ups.

Graph Neural Network‐Based Multi‐Scale Whole Slide Image Fusion for pT Staging of Muscle‐Invasive Bladder Cancer

open access: yesCancer Science, EarlyView.
Accurate pT staging in muscle‐invasive bladder cancer is essential for treatment and prognosis, but current methods rely on time‐consuming and variable microscopic evaluation. We developed a graph neural network–based model that integrates multi‐scale whole‐slide images to automate pT staging, achieving excellent performance with an AUC of 0.911 and ...
