Wireless Earphone-based Real-Time Monitoring of Breathing Exercises: A Deep Learning Approach [PDF]

in IEEE International Conference on Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society, 2024, pp. 1-4
Several therapy routines require deep breathing exercises as a key component and patients undergoing such therapies must perform these exercises regularly. Assessing the outcome of a therapy and tailoring its course necessitates monitoring a patient's compliance with the therapy. While therapy compliance monitoring is routine in a clinical environment,

Infinitesimal Perturbation Analysis for Personalized Cancer Therapy Design [PDF]

arXiv, 2015
We use a Stochastic Hybrid Automaton (SHA) model of prostate cancer evolution under intermittent androgen suppression (IAS) to study a threshold-based policy for therapy design. IAS is currently one of the most widely used treatments for advanced prostate cancer.

Neutron Therapy in the 21st Century [PDF]

arXiv, 2014
The question of whether or not neutron therapy works has been answered. It is a qualified yes, as is the case with all of radiation therapy. But, neutron therapy has not kept pace with the rest of radiation therapy in terms of beam delivery techniques.

On The Relationship Between The Energy, Energy Spread And Distal Slope for Proton Therapy Observed in GEANT4 [PDF]

arXiv, 2020
In proton therapy both the energy, which determines the range, and the distal slope, which reflects the rate at which the protons decelerate, are of import if we are to ensure accurate dose deposition and maximum tissue sparing. This publication describes a Geant4 model and presents a two-dimensional polynomial relationship between energy, the energy ...

Cancer and electromagnetic radiation therapy: Quo Vadis? [PDF]

arXiv, 2016
In oncology, treating cancer with a beam of photons is a well established therapeutic technique, developed over 100 years, and today over 50% of cancer patients will undergo traditional X-ray radiotherapy. However, ionizing radiation therapy is not the only option, as the high-energy photons delivering their cell-killing radiation energy into cancerous
