Purpose: The experimental verification of the Acuros XB (AXB) algorithm was conducted in a heterogeneous rectangular slab phantom, and compared to the Anisotropic Analytical Algorithm (AAA). The dosimetric impact of the AXB for stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) and RapidArc planning for 16 non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients was assessed due to the dose recalculation from the A...

introduction quality control is an important phenomenon in nuclear medicine imaging. a jaszczak spect phantom provides consistent performance information for any spect or pet system. this article describes the simulation of a jaszczak phantom and creating an executable phantom file for comparing assessment of spect cameras using simind monte carlo simulation program which is well-established fo...

As a trilogy, this first paper along with the authors' two companion articles introduces alternate approaches to standard $R$-matrix parametrization of nuclear cross sections. The authors present evidence so-called shadow poles in theory for ${}^{134}$Xe. number and location depends upon how one continues operators complex wave numbers. also establish new pole sections, called $w\phantom{\rule{...

Tunnel coupling is a key parameter in coupled semiconductor quantum dots, and crucial ingredient various device applications, such as exchange gates spin shuttling information processing. A widely used charge-sensing technique to extract the tunnel of double dot accounts for only ground orbital state each dot, but authors show that Si valley-orbit must be included analysis. With their more comp...

LTE broadcast is a communication standard which is expected to revolutionize the multimedia service provision in the future. The distinctive features of this standard such as increased service capacity, high spectral efficiency, and spectral adjustability have encouraged many companies to select this standard for the future generation broadcasting. In this paper, after a complete introduction o...

The purpose of this work was to assess the capability radiomic features in distinguishing PET image regions with different uptake patterns. Furthermore, we assessed stability varying reconstruction settings. An in-house phantom designed and constructed, consisting homogenous heterogenous artificial inserts. Four artificially constructed inserts were placed into a water filled levels radioactivi...
