A review of select journals in radiation therapy
2015-03-01
A comparative, but non-exhaustive, review of several key journal in the fields of radiation therapy and radiation oncology.

Fall 2010
A 9.4 T magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) system was used to evaluate the response of a human tumour xenograft model to radiation therapy. The apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) and the transverse relaxation time (T2) of human glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) tumour xenografts in NIH-iii nude mice...

Spring 2017
Adaptive approaches for model-based fault detection, diagnosis and control are the focus of this research. Both analytical and data-driven model-based techniques are studied along with the investigation of their practical applications. This thesis is organized in two parts. In Part I, adaptive...

Adaptive phase synchronization techniques for unbalanced and distorted three-phase voltage system
DownloadFall 2010
Interfacing and operating AC power electronic systems requires rapid and accurate estimation of the phase angle of the power source, and specifically of the positive sequence of the three-phase utility grid voltage. This is needed to ensure reliable operation of the power control devices and of...

Comparison of tooth loss between intensity modulated and non-intensity modulated radiotherapy in head and neck cancer patients
DownloadFall 2011
Advanced radiotherapy (RT) systems (intensity modulated radiotherapy, IMRT) is widely used to treat head and neck cancer. A combination of radiation and chemotherapy potentially increases toxicity as well as dental complications. Tooth loss was retrospectively assessed using oral cavity,...

Design and simulation of a short, 10 MV, variable energy linear accelerator for use in linac-MR systems
DownloadFall 2016
Hybrid linac-MR devices are currently being designed and constructed by several groups around the world which combine a linear accelerator with an MRI in order to enable real-time 3D imaging to visualize tumor movement during external beam radiotherapy treatments. Each of the current systems is...

Fall 2010
Non-Player Character (NPC) behaviors in today’s computer games are mostly generated from manually written scripts. The high cost of manually creating complex behaviors for each NPC to exhibit intelligence in response to every situation in the game results in NPCs with repetitive and artificial...

Impact of conventional fractionated RT to pelvic lymph nodes and dose-escalated hypofractionated RT to prostate gland using IMRT treatment delivery in high-risk prostate cancer
DownloadFall 2009
Prostate cancer is the most common cancer among Canadian men. The standard treatment in high-risk category is radical radiation, with androgen suppression treatment (AST). Significant disease progression is reported despite this approach. Radiation dose escalation has been shown to improve...

Fall 2015
The vision of realizing Internet of Things (IoT) pervasively connecting large number of sensors and devices that can sense and communicate is particularly attractive in today's world offering a wide range of applications. The scaling of wireless sensor network to thousands or millions of nodes is...
