Simple Summary FLASH radiotherapy (RT) delivering ultra-high dose rate radiation can
reduce normal tissue toxicity while effectively treating tumors. However, implementing …

Monte Carlo (MC) simulations play an important role in radiotherapy, especially as a method
to evaluate physical properties that are either impossible or difficult to measure. For …

Purpose An approach known as gold nanoparticle‐aided radiation therapy (GNRT) is a
recent development in radiation therapy which seeks to make a tumor more susceptible to …

The preferential accumulation of gold nanoparticles within tumors and the increased
photoelectric absorption due to the high atomic number of gold cooperatively account for the …

While books on the medical applications of x-ray imaging exist, there is not one currently
available that focuses on industrial applications. Full of color images that show clear …

Abstract Purpose To validate the SpekPy software toolkit that has been developed to
estimate the spectra emitted from tungsten anode X-ray tubes. The model underlying the …

Purpose: To explain the reasons for significant quality correction factors in megavoltage
small photon fields and clarify the underlying concepts relevant to dosimetry under such …

A new method is proposed for scatter-correction of cone-beam CT images. A coarse
reconstruction is used in initial iteration steps. Modelling of the x-ray tube spectra and …

The dead-layer uniformity of the top surface of two high purity germanium detectors has
been studied using a novel automated scanning set-up that allows a fine-grained …

Dual-beam radiography techniques utilising various combinations of high-energy X-rays
and neutrons are attractive for screening bulk cargo for contraband such as narcotics and …
