Radiation Therapy Medical Physics Review – Delivery, Interactions, Safety, Feasibility, and Head to Head Comparisons of the Leading Radiation Therapy Techniques [PDF]
, 2017 Radiation therapy uses high energy radiation to kill cancer cells. Radiation therapy for cancer treatment can take the form of photon therapy (using x-rays and gamma rays), or charged particle therapy including proton therapy and electron therapy. Within

Digital lattice gauge theories
, 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 ...

Monoaminergic modulation of photoreception in ascidian:evidence for a proto-hypothalamo-retinal territory [PDF]
, 2012 Background : The retina of craniates/vertebrates has been proposed to derive from a photoreceptor prosencephalic territory in ancestral chordates, but the evolutionary origin of the different cell types making the retina is disputed.

Radion Inflation in Higher-Dimensional Gravity Theory
, 2012 We study a radion model for inflation and density perturbation identifying the scalar field arising from the five-dimensional gravity on $M_4 x S^1$ with the inflaton.

Veterinary and Comparative Oncology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Radiation therapy (RT) has emerged as a promising non‐surgical approach for treating canine adrenal tumours. This multi‐institutional, retrospective study describes clinical outcomes for 21 dogs having been prescribed a course of hypofractionated image‐guided intensity‐modulated RT (IMRT) entailing delivery of 25–35 Gy total in 5 fractions ...

A Dosimetric Study of Using Fixed-Jaw Volumetric Modulated Arc Therapy for the Treatment of Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma with Cervical Lymph Node Metastasis. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2016 PURPOSE:To study the dosimetric difference between fixed-jaw volumetric modulated radiotherapy (FJ-VMAT) and large-field volumetric modulated radiotherapy (LF-VMAT) for nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) with cervical lymph node metastasis.

Patterns of CT lung injury and toxicity after stereotactic radiotherapy delivered with helical tomotherapy in early stage medically inoperable NSCLC [PDF]
, 2015 To evaluate toxicity and patterns of radiologic lung injury on CT images after hypofractionated image-guided stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) delivered with helical tomotherapy (HT) in medically early stage inoperable non-small-cell lung cancer ...

Veterinary and Comparative Oncology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This retrospective analysis evaluated 12 dogs with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) who received stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT). Dogs received between 6 and 25 Grey (Gy) per fraction for 1–5 fractions for a total dose of 13–30 Gy. Eleven patients (92%) experienced acute adverse effects (AE), with the majority being VRTOG grade 2–3 ...
