What's new in target volume definition for radiologists in ICRU Report 71? How can the ICRU volume definitions be integrated in clinical practice?

The optimal definition of the size, shape and location of gross tumour volume is one of the most important steps in the planning of radiation therapy, and necessitates a proper understanding of the procedure from both the oncologic radiologist and the radiation oncologist. This overview reports on the different terms and concepts that have been recommended in the ICRU Reports for this purpose; ...

Upcoming battles in the war on cancer.

The vision has been clear for more than a decade: Some day, a cancer patient will have her germline DNA decoded and compared with the genetic material in her tumor cells. Treatment will be based on the molecular make-up of the tumor, not its organ of origin. To that end, researchers around the world have made extraordinary discoveries and scientific advances. They have unmasked oncogenes and tu...

Co-scheduling on Upcoming Many-Core Architectures

Co-scheduling is known to optimize the utilization of supercomputers. By choosing applications with distict resource demands, the application throughput can be increased avoiding an underutilization of the available nodes. This is especially true for traditional multi-core architecture where a subset of the available cores are already able to saturate the main memory bandwidth. In this paper, w...
