Surface dose analysis and dosimetric comparison of Halcyon versus Truebeam in breast cancer radiotherapy: An OSL dosimetry study

Journal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Breast cancer is a neoplastic disease with high prevalence among women. Radiotherapy is one of the principal treatment modalities for this disease, but it poses significant challenges. This study aimed to compare and evaluate the technical and dosimetric performance of conventional C‐arm linac systems and a new design, Halcyon, in the ...

Assessment of a medical physics educational program for science teachers

Journal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Medical physics is a fulfilling profession where physics is applied to advance human health. However, many are uninformed of the role of physicists in medicine, and students are unaware of this career pathway. This study presents a pilot 1‐year program for science teachers to learn about physics in medicine and share with students

Design and validation of a novel dosimetry phantom for motion management audits

Journal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background We present a novel phantom design for conducting end‐to‐end dosimetry audits for respiratory motion management of two anatomical treatment sites. The design enables radiochromic film measurements of the dose administered to the target throughout the respiratory cycle (motion‐included) and the dose delivered to the time‐averaged ...

A mesh adaptivity scheme on the Landau-de Gennes functional minimization case in 3D, and its driving efficiency

, 2015
This paper presents a 3D mesh adaptivity strategy on unstructured tetrahedral meshes by a posteriori error estimates based on metrics, studied on the case of a nonlinear finite element minimization scheme for the Landau-de Gennes free energy functional ...

A Python package for fast GPU‐based proton pencil beam dose calculation

Journal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Open‐source GPU‐based Monte Carlo (MC) proton dose calculation algorithms provide high speed and unparalleled accuracy but can be complex to integrate with new applications and remain slower than GPU‐based pencil beam (PB) methods, which sacrifice some physical accuracy for sub‐second plan calculation.

Amygdala Neurodegeneration: A Key Driver of Visual Dysfunction in Parkinson's Disease

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Visual disability in Parkinson's disease (PD) is not fully explained by retinal neurodegeneration. We aimed to delineate the brain substrate of visual dysfunction in PD and its association with retinal thickness. Methods Forty‐two PD patients and 29 controls underwent 3‐Tesla MRI, retinal spectral‐domain optical coherence tomography,

Efficiency of Fuzzy Curve Number on Monthly Runoff Simulation in Beheshtabad Watershed

علوم آب و خاک, 2022
The runoff curve number method is widely used to predict runoff and exists in many popular software packs for modeling. The curve number is an empirical parameter important but depends largely on the characteristics of soil hydrologic groups.

Clinical and Imaging Features of Sporadic and Genetic Frontotemporal Lobar Degeneration TDP‐43 A and B

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Certain frontotemporal lobar degeneration subtypes, including TDP‐A and B, can either occur sporadically or in association with specific genetic mutations. It is uncertain whether syndromic or imaging features previously associated with these patient groups are subtype or genotype specific.
