A Monte Carlo based dose verification tool for an HDR Ir‐192 brachytherapy source and its evaluation on extremity malignancies

Journal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, Volume 27, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract Background TG‐43 formalism dose calculation for brachytherapy with the homogeneous water‐based assumption is widely used, which can lead to dose inaccuracy in treatment planning. Purpose Extremity malignancies are also treated with high‐dose‐rate (HDR) 192Ir interstitial brachytherapy, a treatment site that has not been specifically ...

Gait Stability Training in a Virtual Environment Improves Gait and Dynamic Balance Capacity in Incomplete Spinal Cord Injury Patients

Frontiers in Neurology, 2018
Many patients with incomplete spinal cord injury (iSCI) have impaired gait and balance capacity, which may impact daily functioning. Reduced walking speed and impaired gait stability are considered important underlying factors for reduced daily ...

Polarization Sensitivity of Chiral Manganese Halide Scintillators Enables High‐Resolution X‐Ray Imaging

Advanced Functional Materials, Volume 36, Issue 68, 24 August 2026.
Highly luminescent chiral manganese halide crystals are synthesized using chiral ligands, and they exhibit dissymmetry factors up to 1.4 × 10−2 and show X‐ray detection scintillation capability with a light yield of 43 380 photons/MeV and a low detection limit of 0.05198 µGyair·s−1.

Cross Carbonyl‐Olefin Metathesis of Unactivated Olefins

Advanced Synthesis &Catalysis, Volume 368, Issue 13, 2 July 2026.
A method for the olefination of aryl aldehydes with unactivated alkenes via cross carbonyl‐olefin metathesis is described. Reaction of an aldehyde substrate with a cis−1,2‐disubstituted or monosubstituted olefin using the HBF4 salt of 2,3‐diazabicyclo[2.2.2]octane results in high‐yielding olefination with exclusive trans stereoselectivity. The reaction
