The eyes of a prospective cohort 8,607 Chernobyl clean-up workers (liquidators) were assessed for cataract at 12 and 14 years after exposure. prevalence strictly age-related cataracts was low, as expected (only 3.9% had nuclear either examination), since 90% the younger than 55 age first examination. However, posterior subcapsular or cortical characteristic radiation exposure present in 25% subjects. data Stage 1 cataracts, specifically revealed significant dose response. When various end...

A half-space electromagnetic model of human skin over the band 30-300 GHz was constructed and used to radiometric emissivity. The showed that emissivity rose from 0.4 0.8 this band, with emission being localized a layer approximately one millimeter deep in skin. Simulations differing water contents associated psoriasis, eczema, malignancy, thermal burn wounds indicated radiometry could be as non-contact technique detect monitor these conditions. sample 30 healthy volunteers, measured using...
The authors present transmission data, taken at Ka (36 GHz) and W (95 bands in the millimetre-wave region of electromagnetic spectrum, for various dressing materials used treatment management burn wounds.The results show that such are highly transparent (typically > 90% transmission) and, their dry state, will permit sensing surface skin through thick layers (> 2 cm) different dressings typically applied medical wounds.Furthermore, emissivity same frequency bands, regions human on arm...
This paper describes the experimental setup and measurements of emissivity porcine skin samples over band 80–100 GHz. Measurements were conducted on with without dressing materials before after application localized heat treatments. Experimental indicate that differences in mean values between unburned burned damaged was up to ~0.28, an measurement uncertainty ±0.005. Measured burn increases depth burn, indicating a possible non-contact technique for assessing degree burn. The dressed found...
The quasi-spiral 2D diffractive optical element (DOE) based on M-sequence of length N=15 is designed and manufactured. speckle suppression efficiency by the DOE rotation measured. coefficients 10.5, 6, 4 are obtained for green, violet, red laser beams, respectively. results numerical simulation experimental data show that binary structure can be as effective in reduction a periodic structure. decreases approximately twice at boundaries visible range.

The operational concept and results of tests are presented for a prototype W-band passive imaging system based on planar diffraction antenna. A multi-beam (64 beams) rotating antenna pattern is formed due to the dispersive properties by around viewing axis means low power electromechanical drive. frequency bandwidth 16 GHz split into 64 sub-bands, one each 'beam'. Image formation at short distances, ~ several meters, possible with addition static lens in front unit; far field also without an...
A local plasmon resonance on a metal wedge is studied by using the Meixner approach [J. Meixner, IEEE Trans. Antennas Propag.AP-20, 442 (1972)]. It found that singular field behavior of as function distance from edge sensitive to wavelength and angle, ranges dramatic increase in amplitude close its theoretical limit pure oscillatory with only minor variation. Field singularities for gold, silver, aluminum wedges are calculated. shown that, unlike an ideal-conductor wedge, real part power...
A technique to measure the human skin emissivity in vivo is described for frequency band 80-100 GHz. Emissivity measurements were performed on 60 participants, 35 males and 25 females, with ages ranging from 20 years. Results show that of higher than females. The study suggests a trend emissivities age gender, which might be due variations thickness water content. As non-contact screening desirable medical applications, passive millimeter-wave sensing could means achieving this diagnosis...
