  1. 36. Photoelectron Spectroscopy on HCl and DCl : Synchrotron Radiation Based Studies of Dissociation Dynamics

    Författare :Florian Burmeister; Eckart Rühl; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Physics; Photoelectron spectroscopy; HCl; DCl; Dissociation dynamics; Born-Oppenheimer approximation; Synchrotron radiation; Fysik; Physics; Fysik; fysik; Physics;

    Sammanfattning : Dissociation dynamics of the ionized molecules HCl and the deuterated system DCl has been studied in gas-phase using synchrotron based photoelectron spectroscopy (PES).The inner-valence "(4σ)-1" photoionization band for DCl and HCl was recorded using maximum resolution in order to probe an interference pattern between a dissociative and a bound electronic state.

  2. 37. Energy and intensity modulated radiation therapy with electrons

    Författare :Lennart Olofsson; Mikael Karlsson; Magnus Karlsson; Björn Zackrisson; Erik Traneus; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Radiation sciences; Radiation therapy; Conformal therapy; IMRT; Electrons; Electron treatment head; Electron MLC; Bremsstrahlung reduction; Integral dose; Penumbra; Output factor; Strålningsvetenskap; Radiation biology; Strålningsbiologi; radiofysik; radiation physics;

    Sammanfattning : In recent years intensity modulated radiation therapy with photons (xIMRT) has gained attention due to its ability to reduce the dose in the tissues close to the tumour volume. However, this technique also results in a large low dose volume. LÄS MER

  3. 38. High Performance Computing for the Optimization of Radiation Therapy Treatment Plans

    Författare :Felix Liu; Stefano Markidis; Artur Podobas; Albin Fredriksson; David Keyes; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; HPC; Radiation Therapy; Optimization; Numerical Linear Algebra; Interior Point Methods; Datalogi; Computer Science;

    Sammanfattning : Radiation therapy is a clinical field in which computer simulations play a crucial role. Before patients undergo radiation therapy, an individual treatment plan for each patient needs to be created based on the specifics of their case (a process often referred to as \emph{treatment planning}).

  4. 39. Oxidized nucleotides as a predictor of radiation sensitivity

    Författare :Ali Pour Khavari; Siamak Haghdoost; Marie Öhman; Anders Nilsson; Bo Stenerlöw; Neus Visa; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; 8-oxo-dG; Radiation; Sensitivity; Oxidized; Nucleotides; ROS; NOS; molekylär biovetenskap; Molecular Bioscience;

    Sammanfattning : The direct and indirect effects of IR can lead to DNA damage and activation of DNA repair. The indirect effects of ionizing radiation mediated by reactive oxygen species (ROS) which produced through radiolysis of water and if not taken care of by the antioxidant system, can also give rise to oxidative stress.

  5. 40. Predicting Normal Tissue Complications after External Beam Radiation Therapy

    Författare :Caroline Olsson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; NTCP; fractionation effects; radiobiological modelling; pubic bone pain;

    Sammanfattning : Although modern external beam radiation (EBRT) therapy has the ability to conform the dose tightly around the volume to be treated, unwanted irradiation to surrounding normal tissue is still a problem. The probability of a side effect arising in normal tissue after EBRT is commonly modelled by an s-shaped dose-volume response curve where dose or volume are plotted against response (i. LÄS MER
