Journal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, Volume 23, Issue 12, December 2022., 2022 Abstract Positron emission tomography with x‐ray computed tomography (PET/CT) is increasingly being utilized for radiation treatment planning (RTP). Accurate delivery of RT therefore depends on quality PET/CT data. This study covers quality control (QC) procedures required for PET/CT for diagnostic imaging and incremental QC required for RTP.

Journal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, Volume 23, Issue 12, December 2022., 2022 Abstract Background and purpose For postoperative breast cancer patients, deformable image registration (DIR) is challenged due to the large deformations and non‐correspondence caused by tumor resection and clip insertion. To deal with it, three metrics (fiducial‐, region‐, and intensity‐based) were jointly used in DIR algorithm for improved accuracy ...

Journal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, Volume 23, Issue 12, December 2022., 2022 Abstract Purpose MRI is increasingly used for brain and head and neck radiotherapy treatment planning due to its superior soft tissue contrast. Flexible array coils can be arranged to encompass treatment immobilization devices, which do not fit in diagnostic head/neck coils. Selecting a flexible coil arrangement to replace a diagnostic coil should rely

Journal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, Volume 23, Issue 12, December 2022., 2022 Abstract Purpose To evaluate the impact of various noise reduction algorithms and template matching parameters on the accuracy of markerless tumor tracking (MTT) using dual‐energy (DE) imaging. Methods A Varian TrueBeam linear accelerator was used to acquire a series of alternating 60 and 120 kVp images (over a 180° arc) using fast kV switching, on ...

Highly sensitive fluorescent pH microsensor based on the ratiometric dye pyranine immobilized on silica microparticles [PDF]
Chemistry - A European Journal, 2021, 2021 Pyranine (HPTS) is a remarkably interesting pH sensitive dye that has been used for plenty of applications. Its high quantum yield and extremely sensitive ratiometric fluorescence against pH change makes it a very favorable for pH sensing applications and development of pH nano/microsensors.

Rate equations, spatial moments, and concentration profiles for mobile-immobile models with power-law and mixed waiting time distributions [PDF]
Phys. Rev. E 105, 014105 (2022), 2022 We present a framework for systems in which diffusion-advection transport of a tracer substance in a mobile zone is interrupted by trapping in an immobile zone. Our model unifies different model approaches based on distributed-order diffusion equations, exciton diffusion rate models, and random walk models for multi-rate mobile-immobile mass transport.

Subdiffusion with particle immobilization process described by differential equation with Riemann--Liouville type fractional time derivative [PDF]
, 2023 An equation describing subdiffusion with possible immobilization of particles is derived by means of the continuous time random walk model. The equation contains a fractional time derivative of Riemann--Liouville type which is a differential-integral operator with the kernel defined by the Laplace transform.

Dynamics of membranes with immobile inclusions [PDF]
Phys. Rev. Lett. 107, 258102 (2011), 2011 Cell membranes are anchored to the cytoskeleton via immobile inclusions. We investigate the effect of such anchors on the in-plane dynamics of a fluid membrane and mobile inclusions (proteins) embedded in it. The immobile particles lead to a decreased diffusion coefficient of mobile ones and suppress the correlated diffusion of particle pairs.

Immobilization of single strand DNA on solid substrate [PDF]
Chemical Physics Letters, Vol 450 (2007) 49-54, 2008 Thin films based on Layer-by-Layer (LbL) self assembled technique are useful for immobilization of DNA onto solid support. This communication reports the immobilization of DNA onto a solid support by electrostatic interaction with a polycation Poly (allylamine hydrochloride) (PAH).

Apparent anomalous diffusion and non-Gaussian distributions in a simple mobile-immobile transport model with Poissonian switching [PDF]
arXiv, 2022 We analyse mobile-immobile transport of particles that switch between the mobile and immobile phases with finite rates. Despite this seemingly simple assumption of Poissonian switching we unveil a rich transport dynamics including significant transient anomalous diffusion and non-Gaussian displacement distributions.
