However the potential enormity of the task soon became evident resulting in limitations being placed on the scope of the study. The group of topics finally chosen as the basis for this review-study (listed below) were principally derived from those nominated in the paper by Drew (1987): 1. Optimum Accelerator Energy 2.

Abstract:

The measurement of productivity in health care is difficult. Studies in various specialty disciplines of medicine have identified that the variation in complexities (casemix) between departments or hospitals will vary and therefore will affect any basic productivity statistics that are produced. Radiation oncology is a discipline of medicine where no such studies into radiotherapy casemix variations and the effect that these may have on productivity measures have been performed, despite the high capital expenditure involved in the delivery of radiotherapy.

Abstract:

The EPID (electronic portal imaging device) was designed for in vivo imaging of patients during radiotherapy treatment. The ability of EPIDs to promptly acquire two dimensional data, lends them to be considered for use in quality assurance of the linac. This thesis set out to investigate the possibility of using a radionuclide, technetium 99 m (Tc99m), to produce a flood field for the calibration of an EPID, because using a beam calibrated EPID to measure the beam is self-referential. The difference in relative response between the energy spectrum of a 6MV beam and the Tc99m was investigate

Abstract:

The flattening filter is a conical shaped piece of metal sitting within the treatment head of a linear accelerator, used to produce a flat, uniform beam of X-rays from the forward-peaked distribution exiting the target. Despite their routine use since the introduction of the linac in the 1950’s, however, there are still several unresolved issues surrounding their use. The photon scatter and electron contamination introduced by modifying the fluence are difficult to model, as is the variation in energy spectrum caused by differential absorption across the field.

Photoneutrons produced in the vicinity of medical linear accelerators for therapy, constitute a hazard which is difficult to assess and monitor. The aims of the project were to develop new techniques, using microdosimetry, which would be suitable for the improved quality control of pulsed photon beams and for the assessment of the associated photoneutron hazard in typical treatment facilities from the perspective of the patients and staff. The measurements of photoneutron yields and equivalent doses were obtained using activation analysis detectors around a 10 MV LINAC. To obtain adequate stat

Abstract:

The demand for high power proton beams is at an all time high. The global community has identified many applications ranging from spallation sources, material irradiation facilities and secondary beams factories to accelerator driven systems for energy production, transmutation of waste or production of tritium. The typical path to high power beams involves the use of a linac at least in the lower energy stages. For high intensity, high power operation, significant developments are needed particularly in the linac section and the front end of the machine. Consequently, this thesis brings origi

This thesis investigates the properties of coherent Smith-Purcell radiation (cSPr) at femtosecond-scale in the case of electrons bunches in the ultrarelativistic regimes.

Methods: Cancer cell lines were treated with either EBRT or an in-vitro model of TRT. Dosimetry for the TRT was calculated using radiation transport

There has been an ongoing debate regarding appropriate strategies for the management of carious primary teeth. Studies appear to provide evidence that both selective, symptom-based interventions and traditional restorative strategies are advantageous. However, the analysis and quantification of childhood caries may be affected by clustering of data, and the concurrent risk of exfoliation of primary teeth. Multilevel generalised linear models for the occurrence of primary caries were derived utilising data from a cohort study of 2,654 children aged 4-5 years at baseline undertaken 1999-2003. Th

Abstract:

Health care is a complex system and it is therefore expected to behave in a non-linear manner. It is important for the delivery of health interventions to patients that the best possible analysis of available data is undertaken. Many of the conventional models used for health care data are linear. This research compares the performance of linear models with non-linear models for two health care data sets of complex interventions. Logistic regression, latent class analysis and a classification artificial neural network were each used to model outcomes for patients using data from a randomised c

Abstract:

Multi-atlas segmentation (MAS) has become an established technique for the automated delineation of anatomical structures. The often manually annotated labels from each of multiple pre-segmented images (atlases) are typically transferred to a target through the spatial mapping of corresponding structures of interest. The mapping can be estimated by pairwise registration between each atlas and the target or by creating an intermediate population template for spatial normalisation of atlases and targets. The former is done at runtime which is computationally expensive but provides high accuracy.

Abstract:

The developments of nuclear medicine lead to an increasing demand for the production of radioisotopes with suitable nuclear and chemical properties. Furthermore, from the literature it is evident that the production of radioisotopes using charged-particle accelerators instead of nuclear reactors is gaining increasing popularity. The main advantages of producing medical isotopes with accelerators are carrier free radionuclides of short lived isotopes, improved handling, reduction of the radioactive waste, and lower cost of isotope fabrication. Proton-rich isotopes are the result of nuclear inte

Abstract:

The spirochete Borrelia burgdorferi is the etiologic agent of Lyme disease. This pathogen has a complex enzootic life cycle that involves passage between the tick vector (Ixodes scapularis) and various vertebrate hosts with humans being inadvertent hosts. There is a pressing need to study the genetic aspects of the B. burgdorferi infectious cycle and particularly spirochete genes involved in mammalian infectivity so as to develop novel therapeutic and diagnostic strategies to combat Lyme disease. The B. burgdorferi genome is fragmented and comprised of a single 900 kb linear chromosome and mul

Abstract:

Recently, linear ubiquitin assembly complex (LUBAC)-mediated linear ubiquitination has come into focus due to its emerging role in activation of NF-κB in different biological contexts. However, the role of LUBAC in LMP1 signaling leading to NF-κB and interferon regulatory factor 7 (IRF7) activation has not been investigated. We show here that RNF31, the key component of LUBAC, interacts with LMP1 and IRF7 in Epstein-Barr virus (EBV)-transformed cells and that LUBAC stimulates linear ubiquitination of NEMO and IRF7. Consequently, LUBAC is required for LMP1 signaling to full activation of NF-κB
