introduction: in this study, arrangement of a low-cost optical tomography device compared to other methods such as frequency domain diffuse tomography or time domain diffuse tomography is reported. this low-cost diffuse optical imaging technique is based on the detection of light after propagation in tissue. these detected signals are applied to predict the location of in-homogeneities inside p...

introduction: nasopharyngeal carcinoma is one of the most common malignancies in the head and neck region and radiotherapy is its treatment of choice. in spite of the fact that it is widely used, due to the presence of many sensitive organs or tissues in this region, patients may suffer from a wide range of side effects. one such sensitive tissue is the spinal cord. if the absorbed dose to spin...

In the first part, we determine conditions on spectra X and Y under which either every map from X to Y is phantom, or no nonzero maps are. We also address the question of whether such all or nothing behaviour is preserved when X is replaced with V ∧ X for V finite. In the second part, we introduce chromatic phantom maps. A map is n-phantom if it is null when restricted to finite spectra of type...

OBJECTIVE Patients who misperceive that they are moving their paralysed arm (phantom movements) may not recognise its weakness. Therefore, the relation between phantom limb movements and anosognosia for hemiplegia during selective right hemispheric anaesthesia (the Wada test) was examined. METHODS Nine patients with intractable epilepsy underwent the Wada test. During the right hemispheric in...

We determined the crystal structure of ${\mathrm{Cs}}_{2}{\mathrm{LiRuCl}}_{6}$, which was synthesized in this work, and investigated its magnetic properties. ${\mathrm{Cs}}_{2}{\mathrm{LiRuCl}}_{6}$ has a hexagonal composed linear chains face-sharing ${\mathrm{RuCl}}_{6}$ ${\mathrm{LiCl}}_{6}$ octahedra. In two thirds structural chains, ${\mathrm{Ru}}^{3+}$ ${\mathrm{Li}}^{+}$ sites are almost...
