Radiotherapy is an effective treatment for breast cancer and other thoracic tumors. However, while high-energy radiotherapy treatment successfully kills cancer cells, radiation exposure of the heart and large arteries cannot always be avoided, resulting in secondary cardiovascular disease in cancer survivors. Radiation-induced changes in the cardia...
An internal charging (IC) analysis of the active measurement box of electrostatic risk (AMBER) instrument onboard Jason-3 in polar earth orbit (PEO) has been performed with a new dedicated modeling chain. The ExtendeD Gdml Editor (EDGE) application is in charge of the definition of the computer-aided design (CAD) model. The Modelling Of Radiation (...
This study demonstrated that in hemophilia with inhibitors, bleeding episodes interfere with the daily activities of patients and their caregivers. Furthermore, documenting only lost days underestimated the impact of bleeding episodes because of the high percentage of days without planned work or school.
Diuretics and vasodilators have been the cornerstone of heart failure (HF) therapy for decades. Although not shown to reduce mortality, diuretic and vasodilator therapy remain commonplace for treating acute decompensated HF, with diuretics being the mainstay of therapy for the removal of excess fluid in all patients with HF. This article discusses ...
We present quantum efficiency (QE) and quantum yield (QY) measurements of novel deep optical stack etching extreme-ultraviolet complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor photodiodes of different sizes and derive future potentials. QE values between 24% and 50% at 13.5 nm were achieved. Variations in QE and QY measurement results were analyzed.
