The benefit of using genomic breeding values (GEBV) in predicting ADG, DMI, and residual feed intake for an admixed population was investigated. Phenotypic data consisting of individual daily feed intake measurements for 721 beef cattle steers tested over 5 yr was available for analysis. The...

Optical imaging has long been a gold standard for medical imaging. However, due to the high optical scattering in tissues, it has not been possible to image deeper than a few wavelengths with a useful resolution. Photoacoustic imaging - the use of short-pulsed lasers to induce an ultrasound...

Evaluation of the Advanced Collapsed-cone Engine for High Dose Rate Ir-192 GYN and Scalp Brachytherapy
DownloadSpring 2017
Standard treatment planning in brachytherapy (BT) uses the well-accepted TG-43 dose calculation formalism, which does not account for tissue or material heterogeneities. However, recent developments in BT have led to commercial treatment planning systems (TPSs) using model based dose calculation...

Currently, the Cross Cancer Institute uses CT imaging in conjunction with the traditional Manchester system, which prescribes dose to a defined point, for cervix cancer brachytherapy. To take advantage of MRI for enhanced definition of soft tissue including the cancerous tissue itself, this...

The dissertation explores some of the limitations and assumptions in the current approach to permanent prostate brachytherapy (PPB) dosimetry. Where possible, novel insights and practical improvements are proposed, which aim to enhance the accuracy of radiation dose delivery during treatment. The...

PROTEUS2: A Web Server for Comprehensive Protein Structure Prediction and Structure-Based Annotation
Download2008
Shrivistava, S., Berjanskii, M., Wishart, D.S., Cruz, J.A., Arndt, D., Montgomerie, S.
PROTEUS2 is a web server designed to support comprehensive protein structure prediction and structure-based annotation. PROTEUS2 accepts either single sequences (for directed studies) or multiple sequences (for whole proteome annotation) and predicts the secondary and, if possible, tertiary...

Radiobiological Modeling and Experimental Quantification of Radiobiological Parameters used in Cervical Cancer Brachytherapy Dose Calculation
DownloadSpring 2022
Cervical cancer is the fourth most common cancer worldwide, with an estimated 604,000 cases identified in 2020. The standard care for locally advanced cervical cancers is concurrent chemotherapy and external beam radiotherapy (EBRT) with a brachytherapy (BT) boost. Current guidelines recommend...

Although pens and paper are pervasive in the analog world, their digital counterparts, styli and tablets, have yet to achieve the same adoption or frequency of use. Digital styli should provide a natural, intuitive method to take notes, annotate, and sketch, but have yet to reach their full...
