Applications of optically stimulated luminescence in medical dosimetry [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
If the first decade of the new millennium saw the establishment of a more solid foundation for the use of the Optically Stimulated Luminescence (OSL) in medical dosimetry, the second decade saw the technique take root and become more widely used in ...

Combination of Hypofractionated Radiation Therapy and Gilvetmab for the Treatment of Cutaneous or Subcutaneous Mast Cell Tumours in Dogs

open access: yesVeterinary and Comparative Oncology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Gilvetmab is a caninised monoclonal antibody against canine PD‐1. Concurrent or sequential administration of anti‐PD‐1 antibodies and radiation therapy (RT) improves survival time in various species. Eighteen dogs with mast cell tumours (MCTs) were prospectively treated with 24 Gy of RT over Days 0, 7 and 21 and gilvetmab every 2 weeks ...

Clinical Efficacy of an Electronic Portal Imaging Device versus a Physical Phantom Tool for Patient-Specific Quality Assurance

open access: yesLife, 2022
Pre-treatment patient-specific quality assurance (QA) is critical to prevent radiation accidents. The electronic portal imaging device (EPID) is a dose measurement tool with good resolution and a low volume-averaging effect.
