Aim: To assess whether intensity modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) offers any advantages compared to three-dimensional conformal radiotherapy (3DCRT) when treating the ilio-inguinal lymph-node basin after therapeutic lymphadenectomy for melanoma. Method: 15 consecutive patients receiving adjuvant radiotherapy (48 Gy in 20 fractions) were selected for the study. Simulation, volume generation and goa...

Lecture 7 — September 23 , 2014

In this lecture we cover Splay Trees, first introduced and analyzed by Sleator and Tarjan in [6]. Splay tree is a comparison based data structure (in particular — Binary Search Tree), which — in contrast to BST data structures such as AVL tree and Red-Black tree — does not maintain a property of being balanced in any way. Thus, in the worst case, complexity of a single operation could be linear...

Health Care Robotics (7/2014)

H ealth care is channeling the future to present times by utilizing robotic technologies in such functions as food service, medication distribution, infection control, surgery and even diagnosing patients. The demand is projected to grow exponentially because of their many advantages. According to proponents, robots can curtail labor costs, add operational efficiencies, increase precision, crea...
