Assessment of a medical physics educational program for science teachers

open access: yesJournal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Medical physics is a fulfilling profession where physics is applied to advance human health. However, many are uninformed of the role of physicists in medicine, and students are unaware of this career pathway. This study presents a pilot 1‐year program for science teachers to learn about physics in medicine and share with students

A painful thumb [PDF]

open access: yesBMJ Case Reports, 2013
Isolated traumatic carpometacarpal (CMC) dislocation of the thumb is a rare injury. There are many different ways to manage a thumb CMC joint dislocation which ranges from closed reduction with or without Kirschner wires and casting to ligament reconstruction. However, it is still up for debate on the best management for this injury. We describe a case

Improving dose delivery in non‐coplanar cranial SRS: Stereoscopic x‐ray‐guided mitigation of table walkout errors

open access: yesJournal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, EarlyView.
Purpose Linear accelerator (LINAC)‐based single‐isocenter multi‐target (SIMT) treatment has streamlined the cranial stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) workflow. Though efficient, SIMT delivery adds additional challenges that should be considered, including increased sensitivity to rotational errors for off‐isocenter targets.

Contact-based Grasp Control and Inverse Kinematics for a Five-fingered Robotic Hand [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv
This paper presents an implementation and analysis of a five-fingered robotic grasping system that combines contact-based control with inverse kinematics solutions. Using the PyBullet simulation environment and the DexHand v2 model, we demonstrate a comprehensive approach to achieving stable grasps through contact point optimization with force closure ...

Statistical Errors in the Measurement of Particle Thresholds [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2001
Simple rules of thumb are derived for the precision with which s-wave and p-wave thresholds can be determined by a series of equally spaced cross section mesasurements near threshold. Backgrounds and beam spreads are ignored.

Epigenome‐wide association study, meta‐analysis, and multiscore profiling of whole blood in Parkinson's disease

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
Abstract Objectives An increasing body of evidence indicates altered DNA methylation in Parkinson's disease, yet the reproducibility and utility of such methylation changes are largely unexplored. We aimed to further elucidate the role of dysregulated DNA methylation in Parkinson's disease and to evaluate the biomarker potential of methylation‐based ...

Twelve‐month change in quantitative MRI calf muscle fat fraction in CMT1A predicts clinical change over 4 years

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective We measured clinical and quantitative MRI outcome measures in CMT1A to assess long‐term responsiveness, establish longitudinal validity and assess MRI as a bridging biomarker. Methods Twenty patients with CMT1A and 20 matched controls underwent MRI, myometry and clinical assessments up to four times over mean 4‐year follow‐up ...
