Background: Gel polymers are considered as new dosimeters for determining radiotherapy dose distribution in three dimensions.Objective: The ability of a new formulation of MAGIC-f polymer gel was assessed by experimental measurement and Monte Carlo (MC) method for studying the effect of gold nanoparticles (GNPs) in prostate dose distributions under the internal Ir-192 and external 18MV radiothe...

A reference electrode fabricated by means of thick-film technique is deposited onto a silicon substrate and combined with a thin-film pH sensor to a “hybrid” chip system. To evaluate the suitability of this combination, first investigations were carried out. The characteristics of the thin-film pH sensor were studied towards the thick-film Ag/AgCl reference electrode. Measurements were performe...

We present infrared images obtained with the ISOCAM instrument on board the Infrared Space Observatory of two Luminous Blue Variables (AG Car and HR Car). The images were obtained at eight wavelengths between 8.5 and 16 m using the Circular Variable Filters (CVFs), with a pixel size of 6 by 6 arcsec and a total field of view of 192 by 192 arcsec. The nebula around AG Car is clearly resolved. Th...

Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) imaging by time-spatial labeling inversion pulse (Time-SLIP) technique is labeled by CSF with a selective inversion recovery (IR) pulse as internal tracer, thus making it possible to visualize CSF dynamics non-invasively. The purpose of this study was to clarify labeled CSF signals during various black blood time to inversion (BBTI) values at 3 tesla (T) and 1.5 T magn...
