Effects of bone- and air-tissue inhomogeneities on the dose distributions of the Leksell Gamma Knife$^{\circledR}$ calculated with PENELOPE [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Monte Carlo simulation with PENELOPE (v.~2003) is applied to calculate Leksell Gamma Knife$^{\circledR}$ dose distributions for heterogeneous phantoms. The usual spherical water phantom is modified with a spherical bone shell simulating the skull and an air-filled cube simulating the frontal or maxillary sinuses. Different simulations of the 201 source

Paediatric computed tomography diagnostic reference levels in Africa: A systematic review

open access: yesJournal of Medical Radiation Sciences, Volume 72, Issue 1, Page 139-147, March 2025.
Improvements in computed tomography (CT) technology have increased its applications in medical imaging. Variations in the paediatric DRLs indicate that harmonisation and standardisation of paediatric CT protocols are essential for the optimisation of paediatric doses. Abstract Introduction Improvements in computed tomography (CT) technology in terms of

Automatic 2D-3D Registration without Contrast Agent during Neurovascular Interventions [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2021
Fusing live fluoroscopy images with a 3D rotational reconstruction of the vasculature allows to navigate endovascular devices in minimally invasive neuro-vascular treatment, while reducing the usage of harmful iodine contrast medium. The alignment of the fluoroscopy images and the 3D reconstruction is initialized using the sensor information of the X ...
