متن کاملFemtosecond Laser Filamentation in Air
Femtosecond laser filamentation was excited in air. Measurement of the length of the light filament formed was carried out, using calibration method with an analysis on the precision of the measurement. From the photoemission spectra obtained by optic spectrometer, valuable information on the mechanism of interaction of strong laser pulses with atoms and molecules could be obtained. Furthermore...
متن کاملThe Comparison 2D and 3D Treatment Planning in Breast Cancer Radiotherapy with Emphasis on Dose Homogeneity and Lung Dose
Introduction: Breast conserving radiotherapy is one of the most common procedures performed in any radiation oncology department. A tangential parallel-opposed pair is usually used for this purpose. This technique is performed using 2D or 3D treatment planning systems. The aim of this study was to compare 2D treatment planning with 3D treatment planning in tangential irradiation in breast conse...
متن کاملExternal beam radiotherapy with dose escalation in 1080 prostate cancer patients: definitive outcome and dose impact.
BACKGROUND The aim of this paper was to report definitive outcome of prostate cancer patients treated with dose escalation during a period of 12.5 years. METHODS From October 1999 to March 2012 we treated 1080 patients affected by prostate cancer, using External Beam Radiotherapy (EBRT). The mean age was 69.2 years. Most of the patients (69%) were staged as cT2, Gleason Score (GS)<7; the mean...
