Flexibility of Knee Joint Muscles in Women with Knee Osteoarthritis and Healthy Controls
Background: Osteoarthritis is one of the most common diseases in synovial joints. Due to high loading forces during weight-bearing activities, the knee joint is prone to degenerative processes.

Abstract Purpose Sparing pharyngeal constrictor muscles (PCMs) during radiotherapy improves patient‐reported swallowing function. This study aimed to explore the feasibility of integrating knowledge‐based planning (KBP) with multicriteria optimization (MCO) in Eclipse v18.0 to selectively spare PCM, quantify the required trade‐off in prophylactic ...

Abstract Purpose Four‐dimensional cone‐beam CT (4D CBCT) incorporates oversampling of 3D data to reconstruct multi‐phase CBCT data sets representing distinct phases of the breathing cycle based on a diaphragmatic correlate of respiratory motion. Motion artifacts and blurring can be reduced relative to three‐dimensional cone‐beam (3D CBCT), allowing ...

Results and applications of a space suit range-of-motion study [PDF]
The range of motion of space suits has traditionally been described using limited 2-D mapping of limb, torso, or arm movements performed in front of an orthogonal grid.

Abstract Purpose To generate high‐quality stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) plans for single cranial lesions using 4Pi planning technique and compare these to our clinical “status quo” plans. Methods Eighteen vestibular schwannoma (VS) patients previously planned with Varian Eclipse RapidArc and treated on a Varian TrueBeam using 6FFF MV photon beams ...

Abstract Purpose This study aims to evaluate how different gantry angles, breathing rates (BPM), cine image speeds, and tracking algorithms affect beam on/off latency and the subsequent impact on target dose for a 0.35T MR‐Linac with a 6 MV FFF beam.

AAPM medical physics practice guideline 13.a: HDR brachytherapy, part B
Abstract The goal of this report is to assist the clinical medical physicist in assuring that key quality standards and practice considerations are met to ensure safe, reliable, and reproducible high dose rate (HDR) brachytherapy (BT) treatment. This guideline has been developed to provide appropriate minimum standards for such services.

Sub-fractional Brownian motion and its relation to occupation times [PDF]
We study a long-range dependence Gaussian process which we call “sub-fractional Brownian motion” (sub-fBm), because it is intermediate between Brownian motion (Bm) and fractional Brownian motion (fBm) in the sense that it has properties analogous to ...
