Journal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, EarlyView.Abstract In order to independently supervise the medical use of byproduct material, physicists in the United States (US) must legally meet the qualifications defined by the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) in the 35th part of the tenth title of the Code of Federal Regulations (§ 10 CFR Part 35). The American Board of Radiology (ABR) relinquished its

Journal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, EarlyView.Abstract Purpose We introduce the next generation of “MagicPlate” 2D monolithic pixelated semiconductor detectors – MagicPlate‐976 (MP976). It features a larger array area, higher spatial resolution, and does not require external triggering. We perform a comprehensive characterization for small‐field steep‐dose‐gradient dosimetry applications in ...

Living Cognitive Society: a `digital' World of Views [PDF]
arXiv, 2015 The current social reality is characterized by all-encompassing change, which disrupts existing social structures at all levels. Yet the prevailing view of society is based on the ontological primacy of stable hierarchical structures, which is no longer adequate.

Journal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, EarlyView.Abstract Recurrent imaging is an essential tool for patient care but with an attendant dose from radiation exposure. Recurrent imaging has been the subject of increasing scrutiny and debate based largely on the risk from increasing cumulative doses. However, the accountability for and actions with recurrent imaging as a special component in the general

Why we need an AI-resilient society [PDF]
arXiv, 2019 Artificial intelligence is considered as a key technology. It has a huge impact on our society. Besides many positive effects, there are also some negative effects or threats. Some of these threats to society are well-known, e.g., weapons or killer robots. But there are also threats that are ignored.

Journal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, EarlyView.Abstract Background To assess the dose‐sparing capabilities of a yaw‐limited volumetric modulated arc therapy (YL_VMAT) beam setup for adjacent organs at risk (OAR) in comparison with 3D‐conventional radiation therapy (3D‐CRT), intensity‐modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) and conventional VMAT for radiation therapy in left‐sided breast cancer patients.

A Formal Sociologic Study of Free Will [PDF]
arXiv, 2013 We make a formal sociologic study of the concept of free will. By using the language of mathematics and logic, we define what we call everlasting societies. Everlasting societies never age: persons never age, and the goods of the society are indestructible.
