ASSESSMENT OF TREATMENT PLAN QUALITY BETWEEN FLATTENING FILTER AND FLATTENING FILTER FREE PHOTON BEAM FOR CARCINOMA OF THE ESOPHAGUS WITH IMRT TECHNIQUE

Assessment of Treatment Plan Quality between Flattening Filter and Flattening Filter Free Photon Beam for Carcinoma of the Esophagus with IMRT Technique

Background: As compared to the flattened photon beam, removing the flattening filter (FF) from the head of a gantry decreases the average energy of the photon beam and increases the dose rate, leading to an impact on the quality of 3p2 paint code treatment plans.Objective: This study aimed to compare the quality of intensity-modulated radiation the

Unilateral proteus syndrome in a neonate: A very rare presentation

Proteus syndrome (PS) is a rare sporadic disorder with postnatal asymmetric overgrowth from any of the three germinal layers.The tissue overgrowth may present at birth but becomes more conspicuous with the progression of age.Though it apparently can affect any tissue, it commonly involves skin, bones, and central nervous system.The PS is difficult

The influence of silica-coated nanoscale titanium dioxide on the microstructure, mechanical properties, and carbonation resistance of cementitious materials

Nanomaterials possess great application prospects in improving the performance of cementitious materials.However, their high agglomeration hinders their efficient utilization in cementitious matrices.Consequently, surface modification has recently attracted attention as a method to enhance dispersibility.In this study, silica was employed to modify
