This study addresses the optimization of location a radioactive-particle sensor on drone. Based analysis physical process and boundary conditions introduced in model, computational fluid dynamics simulations were performed to analyze how turbulence caused by drone propellers may influence response sensors. Our initial focus was detection small amount radioactivity, such as that associated with release medical waste. Drones equipped selective low-cost sensors could be quickly sent dangerous...
Background: This interventional pilot study aimed to evaluate the short-term (3 years) efficacy of focal laser ablation (FLA) in treating index lesion low–intermediate-risk prostate cancer, along with assessing safety procedure (ClinicalTrials.gov ID NCT04045756). Methods: Forty patients aged between 46 and 86 histologically proven organ-confined cancer low-to-intermediate progression risk were included. FLA was performed under percutaneous fusion magnetic resonance/ultrasound guidance a Day...

Abstract Virological analysis is time-consuming and expensive. The aim of this work to demonstrate the applicability laser-induced fluorescence (LIF) classification viruses, reducing time for its costs. Experimental tests were performed in which different viruses irradiated with a UV laser emitting at 266 nm emitted spectra recorded by spectrometer. techniques show possibility discriminating viruses. Although application LIF technique biological agents has been thoroughly studied many...
Transperineal laser ablation (TPLA) of the prostate is a novel, mini-invasive option for men with lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) due to benign hyperplasia (BPH). Our aim was assess impact ultrasound-guided TPLA regarding urodynamic improvement and sexual function, monitoring clinical data, postprocedural complications imaging findings at 3-T multiparametric magnetic resonance imaging.Forty-four patients aged ≥ 50 affected moderate severe LUTS (International Prostate Symptoms score 12)...
Activated dust mobilization during a Loss of Vacuum Accident (LOVA) is one the safety concerns for International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor (ITER). Intense thermal loads in fusion devices occur plasma disruptions, edge localized modes and vertical displacement events. They will result macroscopic erosion facing materials consequent accumulation activated into ITER vacuum vessel (VV). These kinds events can cause leakage outside VV that represents high radiological risk workers...
Since the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant accident in March 2011, technology available for unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) radiation monitoring has improved greatly. Remote access to radiation-contaminated areas not only eliminates unnecessary exposure of civilians or military personnel, but also allows workers explore inaccessible places. Hazardous levels radioactive contamination can be expected as a result accidents nuclear power industry intentional release materials terrorist...
The potential for a radiological or nuclear attack has been widely acknowledged in the last two decades. use of dirty bomb by terrorist organizations is considered to be credible threat which policymakers and relevant security agencies must prepare. Radioactive materials are stored thousands facilities around world may not adequately protected against theft. This article analyzes hypothetical large metropolitan area, evaluating radiation dose involved population. dispersion radioactive...
The risk associated with chemical, biological, radiological, nuclear, and explosive (CBRNe) threats in the last two decades has grown as a result of easier access to hazardous materials agents, potentially increasing chance for dangerous events. Consequently, early detection threat following CBRNe event is mandatory requirement safety security human operators involved management emergency. Drones are nowadays one most advanced versatile tools available, they have proven be successfully used...
Recently, surveying large areas in an automatic way, for early detection of both harmful chemical agents and forest fires, has become a strategic objective defence public health organisations. The Lidar Dial techniques are widely recognized as cost-effective alternative to monitor portions the atmosphere. To maximize effectiveness measurements guarantee reliable monitoring areas, new data analysis required. In this paper, original tool, Universal Multi Event Locator, is applied problem...
