ICRP Publication 112 : Preventing Accidental Exposures From New External Beam Radiation Therapy Technologies
ISBN: 9780702044052 / Angielski / Miękka / 86 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Lessons from accidental exposures are, therefore, an invaluable resource for revealing vulnerable aspects of the practice of radiotherapy, and for providing guidance for the prevention of future occurrences. These lessons have successfully been applied to avoid catastrophic events with conventional technologies and techniques. Recommendations, for example, include the independent verification of beam calibration and independent calculation of the treatment times and monitor units for external beam radiotherapy, and the monitoring of patients and their clothes immediately after brachytherapy....

Sensing with Terahertz Radiation
ISBN: 9783642077173 / Angielski / Miękka / 338 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. One aspect of the field of THz radiation is the marriage of microwave and optical techniques. By its very nature, THz radiation bridges the gap be- tween the microwave and optical regimes. The former can be characterized by the fact that most devices are comparable in size to the wavelength of the radiation. As a result, the propagation of energy in these devices is generally in the form of single-mode or low-order-mode guided waves. In contrast, the optical and infrared ranges are generally characterized by beams containing many modes, with dimensions much larger than the wavelength. Of...

A Monte Carlo Primer: A Practical Approach to Radiation Transport
ISBN: 9781461346289 / Angielski / Miękka / 341 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The mathematical technique of Monte Carlo, as applied to the transport of sub-atomic particles, has been described in numerous reports and books since its formal development in the 1940s. Most of these instructional efforts have been directed either at the mathematical basis of the technique or at its practical application as embodied in the several large, formal computer codes available for performing Monte Carlo transport calculations. This book attempts to fill what appears to be a gap in this Monte Carlo literature between the mathematics and the software. Thus, while the mathematical...

4D Modeling and Estimation of Respiratory Motion for Radiation Therapy
ISBN: 9783642364402 / Angielski / Twarda / 341 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Respiratory motion causes an important uncertainty in radiotherapy planning of the thorax and upper abdomen. The main objective of radiation therapy is to eradicate or shrink tumor cells without damaging the surrounding tissue by delivering a high radiation dose to the tumor region and a dose as low as possible to healthy organ tissues. Meeting this demand remains a challenge especially in case of lung tumors due to breathing-induced tumor and organ motion where motion amplitudes can measure up to several centimeters. Therefore, modeling of respiratory motion has become increasingly important...
