Measurement of CT radiation beam width with a pencil ionization chamber and radiopaque mask
Abstract Purpose This study compares fan beam CT scanner radiation beam widths measured with a pencil ionization chamber‐radiopaque mask technique with commonly used film and computed radiography (CR) measurements. Methods For a given fan beam CT scanner x‐ray beam, the ionization chamber‐mask technique determines the radiation beam width by exposing a

Abstract Background The dose‐averaged linear energy transfer (LETD) in proton therapy (PT) has in pre‐clinical studies been linked to the relative biological effectiveness (RBE) of protons. Until recently, the most common PT delivery method in prostate cancer has been double‐scattered PT, with LETD only available through dedicated Monte Carlo (MC ...

A Generalization of the Least General Generalization
In this paper, we describe a polynomial time algorithm, called a k-minimal multiple generalization (k-mmg) algorithm, where $ k gep 1$, and its application to inductive learning problems. The algorithm is a natural extension of the least general generalization algorithm developed by Plotkin.

Abstract Background To assess the dose‐sparing capabilities of a yaw‐limited volumetric modulated arc therapy (YL_VMAT) beam setup for adjacent organs at risk (OAR) in comparison with 3D‐conventional radiation therapy (3D‐CRT), intensity‐modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) and conventional VMAT for radiation therapy in left‐sided breast cancer patients.
