First results from a 760-GW linear transformer driver module for Z-pinch research
In this paper, the results of tests on a 0.76-TW linear transformer driver (LTD) module for Z-pinch research are presented for the first time. Ten LTD cavities, each generating a 1-MA/90-kV pulse on a matched load, were connected in series with a ...

A switchable terahertz metamaterial absorber between ultra-broadband and dual bands
Based on the phase change properties of vanadium dioxide (VO2), we propose a terahertz metamaterial absorber that can be switched flexibly between ultra-broadband and dual bands.

Abstract The past two decades have produced extensive evidence on the manifold and severe outcomes for victims of aggression exposure in the workplace. However, due to the dominating individual‐centered approach, most findings miss a social network perspective.

Abstract Positron emission tomography with x‐ray computed tomography (PET/CT) is increasingly being utilized for radiation treatment planning (RTP). Accurate delivery of RT therefore depends on quality PET/CT data. This study covers quality control (QC) procedures required for PET/CT for diagnostic imaging and incremental QC required for RTP.

Image quality improvement in low‐dose chest CT with deep learning image reconstruction
Abstract Objectives To investigate the clinical utility of deep learning image reconstruction (DLIR) for improving image quality in low‐dose chest CT in comparison with 40% adaptive statistical iterative reconstruction‐Veo (ASiR‐V40%) algorithm. Methods This retrospective study included 86 patients who underwent low‐dose CT for lung cancer screening ...

Abstract Purpose To assess whether the joint application of hybrid iterative reconstruction (HIR) and an adaptive filter (AF) could reduce streak artifacts and improve image quality of neck‐and‐shoulder computed tomography (CT). Methods This study included 96 patients with suspicious neck lesions who underwent a routine nonenhanced scan on a 64‐slice ...

Analysis of the D-wave $$\Sigma $$ Σ -type charmed baryon states with the QCD sum rules
We construct the $$\Sigma $$ Σ -type currents to investigate the D-wave charmed baryon states with the QCD sum rules systematically. The predicted masses $$M=3.35^{+0.13}_{-0.18}\,\textrm{GeV}$$ M = 3 .

Abstract Background Ultrasonography (US) and 99mTechnetium‐sestamibi scintigraphy (99mTc‐MIBI) are currently first‐line imaging modalities to localize parathyroid adenomas with sensitivities of 80% and 84%, respectively. Therefore, finding other modalities to further improve the diagnostic accuracy for preoperative localization is critically needed ...

Treatment planning with a 2.5 MV photon beam for radiation therapy
Abstract Purpose The shallow depth of maximum dose and higher dose fall‐off gradient of a 2.5 MV beam along the central axis that is available for imaging on linear accelerators is investigated for treatment of shallow tumors and sparing the organs at risk (OARs) beyond it.
