7. CHARACTERIZATION AND EVALUATION OF A NIPAM POLYMER GEL MRI DOSIMETER SYSTEM
University essay fromAbstract : Purpose: The normoxic polymer gel dosimeter based on N-isopropyl acrylamide (NiPAM) is a promising full 3D-dosimeter with high spatial resolution and near tissue equivalency. However, limited work have been done in vestigating this dosimeter. The dose response and reproducibility of a NiPAM dosimeter was investigated. READ MORE

9. osimetric impact of system spe cific geometric distortion on head and neck treatment plans in MRI only based radiation therapy
University essay fromAbstract : Background/ purpose: Because of the superior soft tissue contrast, in comparison with computed tomography (CT) data, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is of high interest to include in a larger extent in the ra diation therapy (RT) process. In an MRI only workflow, the CT scan is excluded and a synthetic CT is used for treatment plan ning. READ MORE

10. Dielectric Characterization of Bone Using Ultra Wide Band Microwave Transmission Probe
University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för informationsteknologiAbstract : The body has the capability of reabsorbing and generating new bone throughout life. Bone remains healthy as long it maintains the equal amount of old and new bones. Bone loss is occurred when the old bone absorbed is more and new bone created is less. Osteoporosis is a very common bone disease among men and women in their later years. READ MORE
