Recent Advancements of Artificial Intelligence in Particle Therapy [PDF]
We are in a golden age of progress in artificial intelligence (AI). Radiotherapy, due to its technology-intensive nature as well as direct human-machine interactions, is perfectly suited for benefitting from AI to enhance accuracy and efficiency. Over the past few years, a vast majority of AI research have already been published in the field of photon ...

Transurethral ultrasound therapy of the prostate in the presence of calcifications: A simulation study [PDF]
Purpose: Transurethral ultrasound therapy is an investigational treatment modality which could potentially be used for the localized treatment of prostate cancer. One of the limiting factors of this therapy is prostatic calcifications. These attenuate and reflect ultrasound and thus reduce the efficacy of the heating.

Physical Therapy Modalities and Rehabilitation Techniques in the Treatment of Neuropathic Pain [PDF]
Neuropathic pain is an important problem because of its complex natural history, unclear etiology, and poor response to standard physical therapy modalities. It causes severe disability unrelated to its etiology. The primary goal of neuropathic pain management is to investigate the underlying cause, to make the differential diagnosis, to eliminate risk

In situ theranostic platform uniting highly localized magnetic fluid hyperthermia, magnetic particle imaging, and thermometry in 3D [PDF]
In all of medical profession a broad field of research is dedicated to seek less invasive and low-risk forms of therapy with the ultimate goal of non-invasive therapy, particularly in neoplasmic diseases. Theranostic platforms, combining diagnostic and therapeutic approaches within one system, have thus garnered interest to augment invasive surgical ...

This article reviews the evidence for using modalities and/or exercise treatment in patients with nonspecific low back pain. Poor evidence of efficacy exists for the use of modalities in this patient group. Exercises are beneficial for patients with subacute and chronic nonspecific low back pain. Further studies are needed for type, frequency, duration,
