[ 1 ] - Generating Synthetic Computed Tomography and Synthetic Magnetic Resonance (sMR: sT1w/sT2w) Images of the Brain Using Atlas-Based Method
Introduction: Nowadays, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in combination with computed-tomography (CT) is increasingly being used in radiation therapy planning. MR and CT images are applied to determine the target volume and calculate dose distribution, respectively. Since the use of these two imaging modalities causes registration uncertainty and increases department w...
[ 2 ] - Generating the synthetic CT (sCT) and synthetic MR (sMR: sT1w/sT2w) images of the brain using atlas based method
Introduction: Radiation therapy planning (RTP) is one of the clinical applications in which both CT scan and MRI are used. MR and CT images are applied to determine the target volume and calculation of dose distribution, respectively. In addition, using two imaging modalities increases the department workload and cost. In this study, an algorithm was presented to create synthet...
[ 3 ] - The role of dose fractionation in the level of Radiation- Induced Bystander Effect in QU-DB Cells
Introduction: Radiation effects induced in non-irradiated cells are termed radiation- induced bystander effects (RIBE). The present study intends to examine the RIBE response of QU-DB bystander cells to first, second and third radiation fractions and compare their cumulative outcome with an equal, single acute dose. Materials and Methods: This experimental ...
[ 4 ] - Evaluation of the Bystander effect caused ultrasound waves on the MCF-7 cell line
Introduction: Non-target radiation effects are damages and effects that occur without the need for direct radiation exposure in cells. Bystander signals cause non-targeted irradiation effect that has been defined as radiation responses in which non-irradiated cells exhibit irradiated effects as a result of signals from adjacent irradiated cells. In this study, the bystander ef...
