Requisites of Attenuation for Different Beers

development of different optical methods for determination of glucose using cadmium telluride quantum dots and silver nanoparticles

a simple, rapid and low-cost scanner spectroscopy method for the glucose determination by utilizing glucose oxidase and cdte/tga quantum dots as chromoionophore has been described. the detection was based on the combination of the glucose enzymatic reaction and the quenching effect of h2o2 on the cdte quantum dots (qds) photoluminescence.in this study glucose was determined by utilizing glucose...

Comparing 511 keV Attenuation Maps Obtained from Different Energy Mapping Methods for CT Based Attenuation Correction of PET Data

Introduction:  The  advent  of  dual-modality  PET/CT  scanners  has  revolutionized  clinical  oncology  by  improving lesion localization and facilitating treatment planning for radiotherapy. In addition, the use of  CT images for CT-based attenuation correction (CTAC) decreases the overall scanning time and creates  a noise-free  attenuation  map  (6map).  CTAC  methods  include  scaling,  s...

Clifford Beers

A great reformer has passed on. Clifford Whittingham Beers died on July 9th, 1943, at Providence, U.S.A., but his fine enthusiastic and farseeing spirit has left behind it work which persists and grows. At a time when such ideas as his were regarded as almost too progressive, and, in some quarters indeed, as subversive and revolutionary, he, a recovered patient, demonstrated the value of indivi...

Clifford W. Beers: advocate for the insane

here about scientific ideas or discoveries). Instead he tackles head-on in successive chapters the historiographical problems posed by Restoration science. What was its relationship to the natural philosophy of the Interregnum? What were the origins of the Royal Society? What was the importance of the Society during its first fifty years? How plausible is the Marxist-cum-Mertonian case that the...
