Hypervision Proton Surgery: The Future Direction of Proton Therapy
iNew Medicine, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Proton beams provide unique physical advantages characterized by a low entrance dose, negligible exit dose, and a sharp Bragg peak, which enable superior sparing of normal tissues and support safe dose escalation for improved tumor control. However, conventional photon‐based fractionation remains widely used in proton therapy, where prolonged ...

Localization of Gauge Theories on the Three-Sphere [PDF]
, 2012 We describe the application of localization techniques to the path integral for supersymmetric gauge theories in three dimensions. The localization procedure reduces the computation of the expectation value of BPS observables to a calculation in a matrix

Journal of Medical Radiation Sciences, EarlyView.This study compares two techniques for creating lead shielding masks to replace the current process for superficial/orthovoltage facial radiotherapy: Plaster Cast Positive Mould (PCPM), CT Scanned 3D Print (CT3DP), and Optical Scan 3D Print (OS3DP). CT3DP was found to be more accurate and preferred over OS3DP.

Perturbative and non-perturbative studies in low dimensional quantum field theory [PDF]
, 2007 A relevant perturbation of a conformal field theory (CFT) on the half-plane, by both a bulk and boundary operator, often leads to a massive theory with a particle description in terms of the bulk S-matrix and boundary reflection factor R.

Journal of Medical Radiation Sciences, EarlyView.In 120 patients receiving postmastectomy radiotherapy, each irradiated chest wall was divided into medial and lateral halves, which were randomised to Mepitel Film or StrataXRT. Mepitel Film reduced grade 2–3 acute radiation dermatitis and clinician‐assessed erythema and moist desquamation over time.

The Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This study aimed to evaluate the predictive value of the estimated dose of radiation to immune cells (EDRIC) in patients with esophageal cancer receiving radical radiotherapy. We retrospectively reviewed the data of patients with esophageal cancer who underwent definitive radiotherapy at our institution.

Improvements on the planning and delivery of intensity-modulated arc therapy [PDF]
, 2010 In the past decade, intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) has taken a significant step towards dose conformality and has now become a standard radiotherapy technique in the clinic.
