Radiation therapy of the primary tumor can be a stage treatment patients with initial IV breast cancer, being delievered out not only in purpose decreasing symptom’s severity, but an increase progression-free survival. Modern technologies radiation therapy, including intensity-modulated radiotherapy and deep inspiration under control breathing (Respiratory Gating), significantly reduce dose to ...

1-type and biharmonic curves by using laplace operator in lorentzian 3-space arestudied and some theorems and characterizations are given for these curves.

introduction: gafchromic ebt films are one of the self-developing and modern films commercially available for dosimetric verification of treatment planning systems (tpss). their high spatial resolution, low energy dependence and near-tissue equivalence make them suitable for verification of dose distributions in radiation therapy. this study was designed to evaluate the dosimetric parameters of...

We examined the adequacy of existing shielding guidelines using five-year clinical data from a busy CyberKnife center. From June 2006 through July 2011, 1,370 patients were treated with a total of 4,900 fractions and 680,691 radiation beams using a G4 CyberKnife. Prescription dose and total monitor units (MU) were analyzed to estimate the shielding workload and modulation factor. In addition, b...

solute transport processes are affected by soil pore water velocity distribution. pore size distribution, which can be used to infer pore water velocity distribution, can be estimated from a soil water retention curve (n). in this study, a solute breakthrough curve was simulated using soil hydraulic parameters in four different soils. to evaluate the proposed model, predictions were compared to...

UNLABELLED Ex vivo autoradiographs of healthy kidney tissue from patients who received (111)In-DTPA-octreotide (DTPA is diethylenetriaminepentaacetic acid) before nephrectomy showed very heterogeneous radioactivity patterns in the kidneys. The consequences of the reported inhomogeneities have been evaluated for radionuclide therapy with (90)Y- DOTA-Tyr(3)-octreotide (DOTA is 1,4,7,10-tetraazacy...

Introduction: In radiotherapy, treatment planning methods are evaluating and transforming every day, so precision in calculation and determination of dose delivery process is performing more important role in radiotherapy than past. In modern radiotherapy treatments, deramatically increase of small fields utilization, causes the polymeric gels has known as the most reliable dos...
