Deep Neural Networks for HDR imaging
We propose novel methods of solving two tasks using Convolutional Neural Networks, firstly the task of generating HDR map of a static scene using differently exposed LDR images of the scene captured using conventional cameras and secondly the task of finding an optimal tone mapping operator that would give a better score on the TMQI metric compared to ...

Dose modeling of superficial brachytherapy applicator geometries using multiple radioisotopes
Abstract Background Superficial brachytherapy enables localized dose delivery for superficial cutaneous lesions, but conventional applicators may be limited in treating extended, irregular, or curved surfaces. Geometric constraints, gaps or overlaps between adjacent applicators, and placement‐related uncertainties can reduce dose uniformity ...

CT-guided high-dose-rate brachytherapy ablation of HCC patients with portal vein tumor thrombosis
Background We assessed the safety and efficacy of computed tomography (CT)-guided high-dose-rate (HDR) brachytherapy in treating hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) with portal vein tumor thrombosis (PVTT).

Technologies for engineering repetitive DNA
Abstract Repetitive DNA, a fundamental architectural element of genomes, is widespread across organisms and comprises about 54% of the human genome. With advances in long‐read sequencing and bioinformatics approaches, highly repetitive sequences can now be characterized in depth.

A simple water‐based recycling and recrystallization method enables the recovery of high‐purity PbI2 from spent perovskite solar cells. With guanidinium thiocyanate treatment to restore film quality, PSCs fabricated using the recycled PbI2 achieve a PCE of 17.25%, comparable to those made from commercial high‐purity PbI2. This scalable, cost‐effective,

Abstract Background MR‐US guided biopsies support biologic correlation in HDR prostate brachytherapy, but steep dose gradients and millimeter‐scale localization uncertainty limit the validity of nominal biopsy doses. Purpose To assess how localization uncertainty affects the robustness of biopsy DVH dose thresholds in HDR prostate brachytherapy and to ...

Abstract Background External beam radiation therapy (RT) involves many complex steps to safely and reliably treat patients. The radiation oncology community has adopted process maps and failure modes and effects analysis (FMEA) to analyze risk using the TG‑100 methodology, but the traditional TG‑100–endorsed risk priority number (RPN) has recognized ...

Performance evaluation of a new type of commercial silicon detectors for photon beam dosimetry
Abstract Background Modern radiotherapy relies on advanced treatment techniques that utilize a large number of small fields, for which maintaining dosimetric accuracy is often challenging. Most vendors have introduced microdetectors suitable for small field dosimetry. Sun Nuclear has developed two silicon diodes with a sensitive volume of 0.35 mm3 that
