Evaluation of a commercial deformable image registration algorithm for dual‐energy CT processing
Abstract Purpose Several dual‐energy computed tomography (DECT) techniques require a deformable image registration to correct for motion between the acquisition of low and high energy data. However, current DECT software does not provide tools to assess registration accuracy or allow the user to export deformed images, presenting a unique challenge for

Rapid Detection of Plasticizer Migration From UV‐Aged PVC Films by DART‐HRMS
ABSTRACT Rationale The migration of phthalate plasticizers from high‐volume polymers, such as poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC), raises significant toxicological concerns, particularly when materials are subjected to aging and environmental stress. As traditional monitoring techniques rely on time‐consuming solvent extraction and chromatographic methods that ...

ABSTRACT For the first time, a mixture of cardanol and cardol esters has been studied as plasticizers for PVC. From our previous work, it has been established that the favorable plasticizing properties of cardol for PVC materials exist. Hence, the utilization of cashew nutshell liquid (CNSL), a naturally occurring mixture of cardanol and cardol, as a ...

Abstract Polyvinyl chloride (PVC) is a commonly used tissue‐mimicking material (TMM) for phantom construction using 3D printing technology. PVC‐based TMMs consist of a mixture of PVC powder and dioctyl terephthalate as a softener. In order to allow the clinical use of a PVC‐based phantom use across CT and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) imaging ...
