متن کاملDeveloping a mobile application for usual calculations of radiotherapy physics
Introduction: Successful radiotherapy requires the precise application of a radiation dose to cancerous tissue, which can be achieved by the design of proper treatment methods by radiotherapy physicists. Tasks performed by radiotherapy physicists include verifying the accuracy of dose calculations, correct treatment planning and the proper functioning of accelerators. They are...
متن کاملDeveloping Countries in the Global Economy: A Forward Looking View
This paper discusses what the next few decades could bring for the developing countries in terms of the size and composition of their trade and inward investment flows, as well as a possibly changing policy framework within the global economy in which they have to operate. Both the prospects and implications are clearly different from country to country, but given the breadth of the paper the f...
متن کاملMedical genetics in developing countries.
Since Watson & Crick's 1953 description of the structure of DNA, significant progress has been achieved in the control of congenital disorders, most of which has benefited industrialized countries. Little advantage accrued to developing nations, most of which in the same time frame achieved a significant epidemiological transition, resulting in congenital disorders attaining public health signi...
