HID-1 controls formation of large dense core vesicles by influencing cargo sorting and trans-Golgi network acidification [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Large dense core vesicles (LDCVs) mediate the regulated release of neuropeptides and peptide hormones. They form at the trans-Golgi network (TGN), where their soluble content aggregates to form a dense core, but the mechanisms controlling biogenesis are ...

Comparison of Auto‐Contouring Tools for Delineation of Normal Organs at Risk in Paediatric Patients Undergoing Radiotherapy

open access: yesJournal of Medical Radiation Sciences, EarlyView.
Contouring organs at risk (OARs) manually in paediatric patients undergoing cranial‐spinal radiation therapy (CSI) is a time‐consuming, labour‐intensive task. This study aims to assess the accuracy and clinical acceptability of auto‐contours produced by the Siemens DirectORGANS auto‐contouring software on paediatric patients receiving CSI treatment ...

Digital lattice gauge theories

open access: yes, 2017
We propose a general scheme for a digital construction of lattice gauge theories with dynamical fermions. In this method, the four-body interactions arising in models with $2+1$ dimensions and higher, are obtained stroboscopically, through a sequence of ...

Assessing dose rate distributions in VMAT plans [PDF]

open access: yesPhysics in Medicine and Biology, 2016
Dose rate is an essential factor in radiobiology. As modern radiotherapy delivery techniques such as volumetric modulated arc therapy (VMAT) introduce dynamic modulation of the dose rate, it is important to assess the changes in dose rate. Both the rate of monitor units per minute (MU rate) and collimation are varied over the course of a fraction ...

Volumetric modulated arc planning for lung stereotactic body radiotherapy using conventional and unflattened photon beams: a dosimetric comparison with 3D technique

open access: yesRadiation Oncology, 2011
Purpose Frequently, three-dimensional (3D) conformal beams are used in lung cancer stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT). Recently, volumetric modulated arc therapy (VMAT) was introduced as a new treatment modality. VMAT techniques shorten delivery time,
