In vivo dosimetry for patients with prostate cancer to assess possible impact of bladder and rectum preparation

open access: yesTechnical Innovations & Patient Support in Radiation Oncology, 2020
Purpose/objective: In all treatment sites of our radiotherapy network, in vivo dosimetry (PerFRACTION™) was fully implemented in February 2018. We hypothesized that additional help with bladder and rectum preparation by home nursing would improve ...

Noise exposure while commuting in Toronto - a study of personal and public transportation in Toronto

open access: yesJournal of Otolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, 2017
Background With an increasing proportion of the population living in cities, mass transportation has been rapidly expanding to facilitate the demand, yet there is a concern that mass transit has the potential to result in excessive exposure to noise, and

Ir-192 Hdr Transit Dose And Radial Dose Function Determination Using Alanine/epr Dosimetry [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Source positioning close to the tumour in high dose rate (HDR) brachytherapy is not instantaneous. An increment of dose will be delivered during the movement of the source in the trajectory to its static position.

A novel TPS toolkit to assess correlation between transit fluence dosimetry and DVH metrics for adaptive head and neck radiotherapy

open access: yesPhysical and Engineering Sciences in Medicine, 2021
Inter-fractional anatomical variations in head and neck (H&N) cancer patients can lead to clinically significant dosimetric changes. Adaptive re-planning should thus commence to negate any potential over-dosage to organs-at-risk (OAR), as well as ...

EPID based transit dosimetry to monitor inter-fraction variation in radiation therapy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
In radiotherapy treatment, an amorphous silicon electronic portal imaging device (a-Si EPID) is mounted to the linear accelerator and is routinely used to verify patient setup prior to treatment.

Site‐specific alert criteria to detect patient‐related errors with 3D EPID transit dosimetry

open access: yesMedical Physics (Lancaster), 2018
PURPOSE To assess the sensitivity of various EPID dosimetry alert indicators to patient-related variations and to determine alert threshold values that ensure excellent error detectability.

Tunable‐Threshold UV Dosimetry With Programmable Luminescent Tags via Oxygen‐Mediated Room‐Temperature Phosphorescence

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
A fully organic UV threshold dosimeter is developed by exploiting the oxygen‐sensitive room‐temperature phosphorescence of a purely organic emitter in a polymer matrix. Upon reaching a specific cumulative UV dose, photochemical oxygen depletion triggers a sharp, high‐contrast emission.

Self‐Powered Visible‐Blind Graphene/NiO/ZnO UV‐C Photodiodes

open access: yesAdvanced Optical Materials, EarlyView.
“A scalable architecture for self‐powered UV‐C photodiodes integrates defect‐engineered p‐NiO/n‐ZnO heterojunctions with highly UV‐C transparent graphene anodes. The type‐II band alignment combined with the built‐in electrical field enables robust zero‐bias charge separation.
