Quality assurance (QA) of the multileaf collimator (MLC) is a critical step for the delivery of intensity modulated radiation therapy treatment plan. While QA procedures for motor-driven MLC have been published extensively, those for binary MLCs such as the one used for helical tomotherapy have not been presented in the literature, as this is still a fairly new technology. In this study, seven ...
Mlc is a global regulator of carbohydrate metabolism. Recent studies have revealed that Mlc is depressed by protein-protein interaction with enzyme IICB(Glc), a glucose-specific permease, which is encoded by ptsG. The mlc gene has been previously known to be transcribed by two promoters, P1(+1) and P2(+13), and have a binding site of its own gene product at +16. However, the mechanism of transc...
Background: Radiotherapy with large mantle field is an effective technique in increasing the risk of secondary cancers among HL (Hodgkin Lymphoma) patients; therefore, it is essential to choose an effective treatment field including the least medical conditions in radiotherapy.Objective: The present study aimed to plan separate fields for neck and mediastinum using various energies, to compare ...
A new approach for the inverse treatment planning in radiation therapy with the multileaf colli-mator (MLC) technique is presented. The application of the MLC-techniques requires an algorithm for the computation of the positions or velocities of leaves as a function of time such that the prescribed dose in the patient space is obtained. First the intensity distribution in the treatment space is...
The analysis of dynamic multileaf collimator (MLC) positions for the delivered intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) plans is crucial in that it may capture dose delivery problems otherwise difficult to observe and quantify in the conventional dosimetric measurements with film or with an ionization chamber. In some IMRT systems, delivery of IMRT fields starts with a maximum MLC opening (rough...
Phosphorylation of endothelial myosin light chains (MLC) is a key mechanism in control of endothelial contractile machinery. Extracellular ATP influences endothelial MLC phosphorylation by either activation of Ca(2+)-dependent MLC kinase or Ca(2+)-independent MLC phosphatase. Here, the role of the MEK/MAPK pathway in this signaling was investigated in porcine aortic endothelial cells. Phosphory...
The build-up dose in the megavoltage photon beams can be a limiting factor in intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) treatments. Excessive surface dose can cause patient discomfort and treatment interruptions, while underdosing may lead to tumor repopulation and local failure. Dose in the build-up region was investigated for IMRT delivery with solid brass compensator technique(compensator...
We performed an evaluation of the CyberKnife InCise MLC by comparing plan qualities for single and multiple brain lesions generated using the first version of InCise MLC, fixed cone, and Iris collimators. We also investigated differences in delivery efficiency among the three collimators. Twenty-four patients with single or multiple brain mets treated previously in our clinic on a CyberKnife M6...
The small GTPase RhoA increases the Ca(2+) sensitivity of smooth muscle contraction and myosin light chain (MLC) phosphorylation by inhibiting the activity of MLC phosphatase. RhoA is also a known regulator of cytoskeletal dynamics and actin polymerization in many cell types. In airway smooth muscle (ASM), contractile stimulation induces MLC phosphorylation and actin polymerization, which are b...
Abstract Introduction Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is a global health problem and silent epidemic of the modern times. Studies indicate litigation prominent factor that accounts for poor outcome prolonged recovery from mild TBI. Depression most frequently diagnosed psychiatric disorder after Postconcussion symptoms, litigation, suboptimal effort could contribute to neuropsychological functionin...
