Advances in kilovoltage x-ray beam dosimetry.
This topical review provides an up-to-date overview of the theoretical and practical aspects of therapeutic kilovoltage x-ray beam dosimetry. Kilovoltage x-ray beams have the property that the maximum dose occurs very close to the surface and thus, they are predominantly used in the treatment of skin cancers but also have applications for the treatment of other cancers. In addition, kilovoltage...
متن کاملComparison of kilovoltage x-ray and electron beam dose distributions for radiotherapy of the sternum.
The dose distributions for a patient with cancer involving the sternum were calculated for both a kilovoltage x-ray beam and a megavoltage electron beam. The minimum target dose and dose uniformity over the target volume were significantly better using electrons (90%-101%) than kilovoltage x-rays (68%-119%). The calculated lung dose and integral patient dose were also less for electrons than ki...
متن کاملautomatic verification of authentication protocols using genetic programming
implicit and unobserved errors and vulnerabilities issues usually arise in cryptographic protocols and especially in authentication protocols. this may enable an attacker to make serious damages to the desired system, such as having the access to or changing secret documents, interfering in bank transactions, having access to users’ accounts, or may be having the control all over the syste...
15 صفحه اولRoutine verification of RapidArc ® plans using Epiqa TM
Epiqa TM is a program that allows to convert a dosimetric image acquired by an EPID into a dosemap and to compare the dosemap with a reference dose distribution. It is possible to utilize Epiqa for a verification of static as well as intensity modulated fields, including RapidArc ® fields. This text attempts to provide an overview of applied principles, describe the workflow, and discuss obtain...
متن کاملHuman identification using chest x-ray images
This paper proposes a new domain of human identification based on the classification of chest x-ray images. Like fingerprint, retina or face images have been used for human identification, the question whether chest x-ray images can provide valid, accurate and reliable information about the identity of an individual has not been investigated so far and is thus proposed here. Various approaches ...
