Integrated-type proton computed tomography (pCT) measures proton stopping power ratio (SPR) images for proton therapy treatment planning, but its image quality is degraded due to noise and scatter. Although several correction methods have been propos...
Electrochemical sensors are critical to artificial intelligence by virtue of capability of mimicking human skin to report sensing signals. But their practical applications are restricted by low sensitivity and limited cycling stability, which result ...
Ion intercalation based programmable resistors have emerged as a potential next-generation technology for analog deep-learning applications. Proton, being the smallest ion, is a very promising candidate to enable devices with high modulation speed, l...
AIMS: To assess the perioperative and short-term functional and oncologic outcomes of the salvage robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (sRARP), after recurrence following primary proton beam therapy for clinically localized prostate cancer.
Non-invasive imaging methods for detecting intratumoural viral spread and host responses to oncolytic virotherapy are either slow, lack specificity or require the use of radioactive or metal-based contrast agents. Here we show that in mice with gliob...
Chemical exchange saturation transfer (CEST) MRI has positioned itself as a promising contrast mechanism, capable of providing molecular information at sufficient resolution and amplified sensitivity. However, it has not yet become a routinely employ...
Artificial intelligence (AI) is used to quantitatively analyze the voltammetry of the reduction of acetic acid in aqueous solution generating thermodynamic and kinetic data. Specifically, the variation of the steady-state current for the reduction of...
External beam radiotherapy is aimed to precisely deliver a high radiation dose to malignancies, while optimally sparing surrounding healthy tissues. With the advent of increasingly complex treatment plans, the delivery should preferably be verified b...
BACKGROUND: Dose deposition characteristics of proton radiation can be advantageous over photons. Proton treatment planning, however, poses additional challenges for the planners. Proton therapy is usually delivered with only a small number of beam a...
Next generation online and real-time adaptive radiotherapy workflows require precise particle transport simulations in sub-second times, which is unfeasible with current analytical pencil beam algorithms (PBA) or Monte Carlo (MC) methods. We present ...
