Activation rate uniformity in a bilateral IVNAA facility for two anthropomorphic phantoms [PDF]

open access: yesNuclear Technology and Radiation Protection, 2010
Activation rate uniformity is the first property which is considered in the design of a prompt γ-ray in vivo neutron activation analysis facility. Preliminary studies on the activation rate distribution in the body can be done by use of Monte Carlo ...

Cerebrospinal fluid micro-volume changes inside the spinal space affect intracranial pressure in different body positions of animals and phantom

open access: yesFrontiers in Molecular Neuroscience, 2022
Interpersonal differences can be observed in the human cerebrospinal fluid pressure (CSFP) in the cranium in an upright body position, varying from positive to subatmospheric values. So far, these changes have been explained by the Monroe–Kellie doctrine

Exploring Green Fluorescent Protein Brownian Motion: Temperature and Concentration Dependencies Through Luminescence Thermometry

open access: yesAdvanced Physics Research
Luminescent nanothermometry emerges as a powerful tool for studying protein dynamics. This technique was employed to perform the first measurement of the temperature dependence of protein Brownian velocity, showcasing the illustrative example of enhanced

Manufacturing process for hydrogel vessel phantoms

open access: yesCurrent Directions in Biomedical Engineering, 2019
Phantoms mimicking special physiological processes of the human body are essential for evaluating prototypes of medical devices. Especially for thermometric MRI measurements, the temperature distribution in the brain needs to be simulated.

Health‐Related Social Needs in Children With Sickle Cell Disease Are Associated With Worse Health‐Related Quality of Life

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Children with sickle cell disease (SCD) face multiple acute and chronic medical complications that may impact their quality of life as reported by patients themselves. Health‐related social needs (HRSNs), such as food and housing insecurity, are common in people with SCD, but the association between HRSNs and patient‐reported ...

Phantom hCG and Phantom Choriocarcinoma

open access: yesGynecologic Oncology, 1998
Phantom hCG and phantom choriocarcinoma syndrome (pseudohypergonadotropinemia) refers to persistent mild elevations of hCG, leading physicians to treat patients with cytotoxic chemotherapy for choriocarcinoma when in reality no true hCG or trophoblast disease is present. We report here three cases of the phantom hCG and phantom choriocarcinoma syndrome

A Formula to Calculate the Threshold for Radiotherapy Targets on PET Images: Simulation Study

open access: yesFrontiers in Oncology, 2020
BackgroundPositron emission tomography (PET) images are being applied for defining radiotherapy targets. However, a recognized method for defining radiotherapy targets is lacking. We investigate the threshold to outline the radiotherapy target of a tumor

Are Fertility Preservation Procedures Before Gonadotoxic Therapy and Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation Feasible and Safe in Very Young Children? A Retrospective Cohort Study

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Fertility preservation (FP) is increasingly integrated into the care of pediatric patients exposed to gonadotoxic therapy or conditioning for hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT), yet perioperative data in infants and toddlers remain scarce.

In Vitro Evaluation of Confounders in Brain Optical Monitoring: A Review

open access: yesSensors
Optical brain monitoring techniques, including near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS), diffuse correlation spectroscopy (DCS), and photoplethysmography (PPG) have gained attention for their non-invasive, affordable, and portable nature.

Central Nervous System Neuroblastoma, FOXR2‐Activated: A Pooled Analysis of Published Clinical Outcomes

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Central nervous system (CNS) neuroblastoma, FOXR2‐activated, is a recently recognized entity in the WHO CNS5 classification, defined by activation of the FOXR2 transcription factor and unique histopathological features. This review synthesizes available literature and pooled clinical data, providing insight into demographics ...
