The predominant mode of radiation-induced cell death for solid tumours is mitotic catastrophe, which in part dependent on sublethal damage repair being complete at around 6 h. Circadian variation appears to play a role normal cellular division, and this could influence tumour response radiation treatment depending the time delivery. We tested hypothesis that later day may improve nodal downstaging rectal cancer patients treated neoadjuvantly with therapy. Recruitment was by retrospective...
ABSTRACT Introduction Prostate motion during external beam radiotherapy (EBRT) is common and typically managed using fiducial markers cone CT (CBCT) scans for inter‐fractional correction. However, real‐time intra‐fractional management less commonly implemented. This study evaluated the extent of prostate transperineal ultrasound (TPUS) examined impact treatment time on motion. Methods Patients undergoing EBRT with TPUS at a single institution from August 2016 to 2021 were analysed....
Abstract Training deep learning models generally requires large, costly datasets which can limit their application towards in-house segmentation tasks. This study investigates the trade-off in dataset size within context of pelvic multi-organ MR where we evaluate performance nnU-Net, a well-known model, under conditions limited domain and data availability. 12 participants undergoing treatment on an Elekta Unity were recruited, acquiring 58 images, with 4 (12 images) withheld for testing....
Despite the low contribution of heavy ions to total fluence in space radiation environment, their radiobiological effect on human body is extremely high. In this article, we investigated field which resulted from interaction galactic cosmic rays (GCRs), specifically some and energies, typically encountered with a realistic multilayer sample International Space Station (ISS) Columbus module's shielding wall. The quality factor, Q, normalized dose equivalent, H, derived microdosimetric...

The treatment of obstinato organic strictures the urethra lias been an inviting subject for surgeons in these modern times, and many arc plans which have proposed combating this troublesome difficulty.Whilst I do not propose, present article, to give a history different treatment, or go into any lengthy discussion merits them, will simply assume, by way preface what am about offer, that I13' temporary dilatation, continuous internal urcthrotomy, covers most anything like Vol.Lxxvii.-îsTo. 20
ABSTRACT Aim The purpose of this research was to employ radiobiological as well physics principles investigate materials for an intravehicular spacesuit and a “storm shelter” that might minimize radiation exposure astronauts during mission Mars. Methods NASA’s OLTARIS space modelling tool used thirty-two potential shielding materials. Radiation estimated return transit Mars 360 days duration. We assessed each material by its ability decrease effective dose received computerized phantom the...
