The axial dose profile of various scans of different CTs was determined to obtain specification on radiation geometry by collimation. The dose was measured "free-in-air" by thermoluminescent dosimeters at the axis of rotation. Considerable differences between the various CTs were observed. The scans of different CTs had narrow and wide fields. It seems to be possible to reduce the energy transm...

A null steering GPS antenna array is designed in this paper. In the proposed method, the exact full wave antenna radiation properties with the effect of mutual couplings and nearby scatterers are considered to calculate the array steering vector, precisely. Although the proposed method is not constrained by the array geometry and the antenna element specifications, a five patch antenna elements...

The U-slot micro-strip patch antennas were originally developed for bandwidth broadening applications. This study presents a transmission line feed to modify the U-slot stacked rectangular micro-strip patch antenna for Ultra-Wide Band (UWB) communications. The modified antenna has a U-cut loaded with parallel slits and corner slots and is printed on a dielectric substrate of FR4 with relative p...

Background Obtaining hemostasis during cardiovascular procedures can be a challenge, particularly around areas with a complex geometry or that are difficult to access. While several topical hemostats are currently on the market, most have caveats that limit their use in certain clinical scenarios such as pulsatile arterial bleeding. The aim of this study was to assess the effectiveness and safe...

Diffuse optical tomography (DOT) modality uses diffusion equation solution of low power laser distribution in the imaging tissue. DOT method has three main running mode and geometric subbranches. Run modes are: Continuous Wave (CW), Time Resolved (TR) Frequency Domain (FD) modes. These run might have transmission-through, back-reflected or ring geometry depend on source detector placements tiss...
