Introducing a bony composite as tissue equivalent for radiotherapy phantoms
The use of a device that simulates the actual condition, as well as being equivalent to the human body in materials and tissues, and having the capability of acting like internal motions of human body is necessary to investigate and simulate the motion of a tumor in radiotherapy and to evaluate dosimetrical coverage of the dynamic target. This device which is called the dynamic phantom should s...
متن کاملTemperature and concentration calibration of aqueous polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) solutions for isotropic diffusion MRI phantoms
To use the "apparent diffusion coefficient" (Dapp) as a quantitative imaging parameter, well-suited test fluids are essential. In this study, the previously proposed aqueous solutions of polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) were examined and temperature calibrations were obtained. For example, at a temperature of 20°C, Dapp ranged from 1.594 (95% CI: 1.593, 1.595) μm2/ms to 0.3326 (95% CI: 0. 3304, 0.334...
متن کاملSuper‐size me: adipose tissue‐equivalent additions for anthropomorphic phantoms
Physical anthropomorphic phantoms have been utilized for a variety of dosimet- ric studies across a range of procedures utilizing diagnostic imaging equipment. Unfortunately, these phantoms are often limited to a single reference size, which often may not be representative of the patient population at large. This work set out to develop an adipose tissue-equivalent substitute material that coul...
متن کاملPolyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) water solutions as isotropic phantoms for diffusion MRI studies
Introduction As Diffusion Tensor MRI (DTI) and other diffusion MRI applications are becoming more widespread clinically, the need to develop a phantom for diffusion MRI calibration and quality control is essential. Standard MRI phantoms are often suboptimal as diffusion phantoms because they have diffusivities that are too large to be representative of those found in biological tissues. Tofts e...
متن کاملon the equivalence of constructed-response and multiple-choice : stem-equivalent, stem non-equivalent but content equivalent, and stem and content non-equivalent items in reading comprehension using multifaceted rasch
the present study investigated construct equivalence of multiple choice (mc) and constructed response (cr) item types across stem and content equivalent mc and cr items (item type ‘a’), non-stem-equivalent but content equivalent mc and cr items (item type ‘b’), and non-stem and non-content equivalent mc and cr items (item type ‘c’). one hundred seventy english-major undergraduates completed mc ...
