A Fast, Robust, Automatic Blink Detector
Introduction “Blink” is defined as closing and opening of the eyes in a small duration of time. In this study, we aimed to introduce a fast, robust, vision-based approach for blink detection. Materials and Methods This approach consists of two steps. In the first step, the subject’s face is localized every second and with the first blink, the system detects the eye’s location and creates an ope...
متن کاملComparison of two commercial detector arrays for IMRT quality assurance
Two commercially available detector arrays were compared for their use in the quality assurance of patient-specific IMRT treatment plans: one a diode-based array (MapCHECK) and the other an ion chamber-based array (MatriXX). The dependence of the response of detectors on the field size, dose rate, and radiation energy were measured and compared with reference measurements using a Farmer-type io...
متن کاملFast neutrons and misonidazole for malignant astrocytomas.
Twenty-five patients with biopsy proven malignant supratentorial astrocytomas were entered into a Phase I/II study of misonidazole combined with neutron radiation at Fermilab Neutron Therapy Facility (NTF) between August 1979 and April 1981. The main objectives were to determine tissue tolerance in terms of acute and late effects, and to estimate tumor clearance and survival rates. The total do...
متن کاملInfrared Detector Arrays for Astronomy
Use of infrared detector arrays in astronomy began roughly 20 years ago, and our detection capabilities in parts of this spectral range have doubled about every seven months since then. A variety of approaches are now used for detector arrays operating from 1 μm to 1 mm and beyond. They include direct hybrid arrays of InSb and HgCdTe photodiodes that operate from 0.6μm to 5μm, and of Si:As impu...
متن کاملMonte Carlo calculation of shielding parameters for fast neutrons in newly developed heavy concretes
Introduction: The role of radiotherapy as a part of cancer management increases every year around the world. Thus, Radiation protection in the design of radiotherapy rooms are of great importance. Materials and Methods: In present study using Monte Carlo method, MCNPX code, fourteen types of developed high density concretes with densities ranging from 2.45 ...
