The scientific community shows a great interest in the study of DNA damage induction, repair and biological effects on cells cellular systems after exposure to ionizing radiation. Several in-silico methods have been proposed so far these mechanisms using Monte Carlo simulations. This outlines Geant4-DNA example application, named "molecularDNA", publicly released 11.1 version Geant4 (December 2022). It was developed for novice users requires only basic understanding scripting languages get...
Purpose This study aims to standardize the simulation procedure in measuring DNA double‐strand breaks ( DSB s), by using advanced Monte Carlo toolkits, and newly introduced experimental methods for measurement. Methods For quantification of , an innovative dosimeter was used produce data. GATE combination with Geant4‐ toolkit were exploited simulate environment. The PDB 4 example upgraded investigated. Parameters such energy threshold ET ) a strand break base pair BPT evaluated, depending on...

Abstract Objective: A methodology is introduced for the development of an internal dosimetry prediction toolkit nuclear medical pediatric applications. The proposed study exploits Artificial Intelligence techniques using Monte Carlo simulations as ground truth accurate absorbed doses per organ prior to imaging acquisition considering only personalized anatomical characteristics any new patient. Approach: GATE were performed a population computational models calculate specific dose rates...
This study investigated alternative, non-invasive methods for human papillomavirus (HPV) detection in head and neck cancers (HNCs). We compared two approaches: analyzing computed tomography (CT) scans with a Deep Learning (DL) model using radiomic features extracted from CT images machine learning (ML) models.
Purpose This study proposes a novel computational platform that we refer to as IDDRRA (DNA Damage Response Ionizing RAdiation), which uses Monte Carlo (MC) simulations score radiation induced DNA damage. MC provide results of high accuracy on the interaction with matter while scoring energy deposition based state‐of‐the‐art physics and chemistry models probabilistic methods. Methods The software is Geant4‐DNA toolkit together new tools were developed for purpose this study, including...
Purpose Based on considerable interest to enlarge the experimental database of radioresistant cells after their irradiation with helium ions, HTB140, MCF-7 and HTB177 human malignant are exposed ion beams having different linear energy transfer (LET).
Optical Monte Carlo simulations have been extensively used for the accurate modeling of light transport in scintillators improvement detector designs. In present work, a GATE toolkit was to study effect scintillator thicknesses and septa materials performance parameters evaluation commercially available small animal gamma-optical camera, named “γ-eye”. Firstly, simulated γ-eye system validated against experimental data. Then, part camera modeled defining all optical properties by means...
Purpose: Pediatric tumors are generally treated with multi‐modal procedures. Brachytherapy can be used pediatric tumors, especially given that in this patient population low toxicity on normal tissues is critical as the suppression of probability for late malignancies. Our goal to validate GATE toolkit realistic brachytherapy applications, and evaluate plans pediatrics accurate dosimetry sensitive organs interest. Methods: The Monte Carlo (MC) was used. Two High Dose Rate (HDR) 192Ir sources...

Exposure to ionizing radiation can induce genetic aberrations via unrepaired DNA strand breaks. To investigate quantitatively the dose–effect relationship at molecular level, we irradiated dry pBR322 plasmid with 3 MeV protons and assessed fragmentation yields different doses using long-read sequencing from Oxford Nanopore Technologies. This technology applied a reference model revealed dose-dependent fragmentation, as evidenced by read length distributions, showing no discernible...
The advances in the development of Facilitative Playbacks extracted from High-Speed videoendoscopic sequences vocal folds are hindered by a notable lack publicly available datasets annotated with semantic segmentations corresponding to area glottal gap.
