Fundamental bounds on quantum measurements with a mixed apparatus [PDF]
We consider the apparatus in a quantum measurement process to be in a mixed state. We propose a simple upper bound on the probability of correctly distinguishing any number of mixed states. We use this to derive fundamental bounds on the efficiency of a measurement in terms of the temperature of the apparatus.

Transitional cell carcinoma of the nasolacrimal sac [PDF]
Tumors in the lacrimal sac are rare yet important due to their malignant and potentially lethal outcomes if there is a misdiagnosis or delay in treatment. Epithelial tumors predominate with squamous cell carcinoma. We report a transitional cell carcinoma

Corneal perforation and rare primary adenocarcinoma of the lacrimal gland: A case report
Rationale: Primary adenocarcinoma of the lacrimal gland is rare, and its presentation as corneal perforation is even rarer. Corneal perforation is an ocular emergency that warrants urgent ophthalmic surgery, yet complete staging of lacrimal gland tumor ...

Endoscopic Ultrasonic Dacryocystorhinostomy for Recurrent Dacryocystitis Following Rhinoplasty [PDF]
: The lacrimal sac is the structure most vulnerable to injury when performing osteotomies for rhinoplasty. When performed in a low lateral position or along the frontal process of the frontal-maxillary suture, osteotomies have the potential to tear the ...

Dosimetric optimization for dynamic mixed beam arc therapy (DYMBARC)
Abstract Background Non‐coplanarity and mixed beam modality could be combined to further enhance dosimetric treatment plan quality. We introduce dynamic mixed beam arc therapy (DYMBARC) as an innovative technique that combines non‐coplanar photon and electron arcs, dynamic gantry and collimator rotations, and intensity modulation with photon multileaf ...
