BONE DENSITOMETRY OF MENOPAUSAL WOMEN IN TEHRAN
Using a cluster sampling method, a group of menopausal women from three geographic areas in Tehran were asked to participate in the study. Demographic data was obtained using a questionnaire. Subjects were than referred to perform bone mass densitometry (BMD). The relationship between various variables (i.e. age of menarche, number of years of endogenous estrogen exposure, ... ) with minera...
متن کاملQuality assurance devices for dynamic conformal radiotherapy
Two quality control devices, light-field device and radiation-field device, have been specially designed to facilitate the clinical implementation of conformal dynamic arc treatment (CDAT) and intensity modulated radiation therapy (IMRT). With the devices, the light field as well as the radiation field, projected from the individual beam at any treatment position (i.e. arbitrary gantry angle) c...
متن کاملA quality assurance phantom for electronic portal imaging devices
Electronic portal imaging device (EPID) plays an important role in radiation therapy portal imaging, geometric and dosimetric verification. Consistent image quality and stable radiation response is necessary for proper utilization that requires routine quality assurance (QA). A commercial 'EPID QC' phantom weighing 3.8 kg with a dimension of 25 × 25 × 4.8 cm³ is used for EPID QA. This device ha...
متن کاملA Quality-Assurance Study of ChEBI
Ontologies are important components of many health-information systems. The Chemical Entities of Biological Interest (ChEBI) ontology has become a standard reference for chemicals appearing in biological contexts. As such, assuring the quality of its content is imperative. In fact, ChEBI has a dedicated Web page at which errors and inconsistencies in its concepts can be reported. A study of the...
متن کاملA systematic mapping study on the combination of static and dynamic quality assurance techniques
Context: A lot of different quality assurance techniques exist to ensure high quality products. However, most often they are applied in isolation. A systematic combination of different static and dynamic quality assurance techniques promises to exploit synergy effects, such as higher defect detection rates or reduced quality assurance costs. However, a systematic overview of such combinations a...
