AAPM medical physics practice guideline 13.a: HDR brachytherapy, part B

Journal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, EarlyView.
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.

Adaptive Control with Approximated Policy Search Approach

ITB Journal of Engineering Science, 2010
Most of existing adaptive control schemes are designed to minimize error between plant state and goal state despite the fact that executing actions that are predicted to result in smaller errors only can mislead to non-goal states. We develop an adaptive

Screening for Social Determinants of Health in Patients with Systemic Lupus Erythematosus: A Point‐of‐Care Feasibility Study

Arthritis Care &Research, Accepted Article.
Objectives Social determinants of health (SDoH) can impact outcomes but are not routinely screened for in US outpatient rheumatology clinics. This study determined the feasibility of routine point‐of‐care SDoH screening among patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), and associated barriers and facilitators at the physician, care team, and ...
