Dosimetric effect of silicone‐based gel on skin surface during volumetric modulated arc therapy for breast cancer

Journal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose This study aims to quantify and compare the dosimetric effects of varying thicknesses of StrataXRT, a silicone‐based gel, and other topical agents on the skin surface during volumetric modulated arc therapy (VMAT) for breast cancer.

Dynamic light scattering for particle characterization subjected to ultrasound: a study on compact particles and acousto-responsive microgels

Scientific Reports
In this report, we investigate dynamic light scattering (DLS) from both randomly diffusing silica particles and acousto-responsive microgels in aqueous dispersions under ultrasonic vibration.

Success of Chemotherapy in Soft Matter [PDF]

arXiv, 2014
The success of chemotharapy in soft matter as a survival is found in the paper. Therefore, it is found the analogous tumor stretching force in soft matter; ultrasonography is performed for this tumor; restoration in soft matter with such a tumor is found; Bayes estimate of the probability of chemotherapy success is derived from the transferred chemical

Equation Systems of Generalized Hydrodynamics for Soft-Matter Quasicrystals [PDF]

, 2019
The equation systems of generalized hydrodynamics, or generalized dynamics for simplicity, for soft-matter quasicrystals were established. Considering the fluidity of the matter with high order we introduced a new elementary excitation---fluid phonon to the quasicrystals, and the equation of state is necessary and introduced too.

Elastin-like polypeptide coacervates as reversibly triggerable compartments for synthetic cells

Communications Chemistry
Compartmentalization is a vital aspect of living cells to orchestrate intracellular processes. In a similar vein, constructing dynamic and responsive sub-compartments is key to synthetic cell engineering.

General phase-structure relationship in polar rod-shaped liquid crystals: Importance of shape anisotropy and dipolar strength

Giant, 2022
Ferroelectricity is a property with spontaneous polarization, which is of paramount importance in modern electrooptic applications. Yet, its observations are mostly limited to solids or chiral smectic C liquid crystals with nearly no fluidity.

Two energy barriers and a transient intermediate state determine the unfolding and folding dynamics of cold shock protein

Communications Chemistry, 2021
Force-dependent transitions can provide insights into the free-energy landscape of proteins. Here, the authors observe the folding and unfolding dynamics of the model protein Csp using magnetic tweezers, from which a free-energy landscape with two energy

Using deep learning generated CBCT contours for online dose assessment of prostate SABR treatments

Journal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, EarlyView.
Abstract Prostate Stereotactic Ablative Body Radiotherapy (SABR) is an ultra‐hypofractionated treatment where small setup errors can lead to higher doses to organs at risk (OARs). Although bowel and bladder preparation protocols reduce inter‐fraction variability, inconsistent patient adherence still results in OAR variability.
