Introduction: A new method based on image registration technique and an intelligent correlation model to calculate. The present study aimed to propose inter- and intra-fraction motion errors in order to address the limitations of conventional Patient positioning methods. Material and Methods: The configuration of the markerless method wa...

Single units, recorded in the medial medullary reticular formation (RF) in unrestrained, behaving cats, discharged in conjunction with specific movements and postures. Most cells were also active during REM sleep. Discharge rates in active waking and REM sleep were positively correlated and discharge patterns in these states were similar. We conclude that activity in these cells is related to t...

Vital capacity single-breath washouts using 90% O2-5% He-5% SF6 as a test gas mixture were performed with subjects sitting on a stool (upright) or recumbent on a stretcher (prone, supine, lateral left, lateral right, with or without rotation at end of inhalation). On the basis of the combinations of supine and prone maneuvers, gravity-dependent contributions to N2 phase III slope and N2 phase I...

Background:  The aim of the study was to estimate the radiation dose during emergency exposure to patients treated with iodine-131 during the isolation period. Materials and Methods: The dose rate from a sample of 192 patients administrated by three different radioactivity of 131I (3.7, 5.55 and 7.4 GBq) was measured, at 1 meter after 1, 24 and 48 hours post dose administration, at three d...
