Excessive Hepatic Arterial-portal Venous Shunting May Predict Failure of Microparticle Localization in Hepatocellular Carcinomas

open access: yesWorld Journal of Nuclear Medicine, 2013
Locoregional treatment of hepatocellular carcinomas using yttrium-90 (Y-90) microspheres is an emerging modality, and involves the administration of such radioactive particles directly into the hepatic arterial vasculature.

Total body irradiation (TBI) combining volumetric modulated arc therapy (VMAT) for thorax at standard source axis distance (SAD) with intensity modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) at extended SAD

open access: yesJournal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, Volume 27, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract Purpose Total body irradiation (TBI) is an important part of conditioning regimens prior to hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). At our institution, a conventional TBI technique employing bilateral fields at extended source‐to‐axis distance (eSAD) and a solid three‐dimensional (3D) compensator has been standard practice since the ...

Knowledge based automated planning for non‐coplanar VMAT stereotactic radiosurgery in ocular malignancies

open access: yesJournal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, Volume 27, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract Background and purpose Stereotactic radiosurgery/radiotherapy (SRS/SRT) has emerged as a less invasive alternative to enucleation in the management of ocular malignancies. SRS/SRT planning is time‐consuming, complex, and the plan quality depends on the experience of the treatment planner.

Development of a linear array for intracavitary in vivo dosimetry during external beam radiotherapy and brachytherapy. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
We present the details of a new linear array dosimeter consisting of a chain of semiconductors mounted on an ultra-thin (50 μm thick) flexible substrate and housed in an intracavitary catheter. The semiconductors, manufactured by NMRC Cork, have not been

Machine Learning‐Ready Data Sets for the Analysis and Nowcasting of Atmospheric Radiation at Aviation Altitudes

open access: yesSpace Weather, Volume 24, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract Nowcasting and forecasting of the radiation environment in the Earth's lower atmosphere are critical for the safety of aircraft and spacecraft crews and passengers. Currently, this problem is addressed by employing statistical and physics‐based models that take into account particle transport and precipitation.

Detector for imaging and dosimetry of laser-driven epithermal neutrons by alpha conversion [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
An epithermal neutron imager based on detecting alpha particles created by boron neutron capture mechanism is discussed. The diagnostic mainly consists of a mm thick Boron Nitride (BN) sheet (as an alpha converter) in contact with a non-borated cellulose
