Towards a Guidance System to Aid in the Dosimetry Calculation of Intraoperative Electron Radiation Therapy

2015

In Intraoperative Electron Radiation Therapy (IOERT), the lack of specific planning tools limits its applicability, the need for accurate dosimetry estimation and application during the therapy being the most critical. Recently, some works have been presented that try to overcome some of the limitations for establishing planning tools, though still an accurate guidance system that tracks, in real-time, the applicator and the patient is needed. In these surgical environments, the acquisition of an accurate 3D shape of the patient’s tumor bed in real-time is of high interest, as current systems make use of a 3D model acquired before the treatment. In this paper, an optical-based system is pre…

Carcinoma Primario Intraóseo y quiste odontogénico: Tres casos clínicos y revisión de la Literatura

2006

Introducción: Los Carcinomas Intraóseos Primarios Odontogénicos (PIOC) son un raro grupo de tumores malignos con unos estrictos criterios diagnósticos clínicos y anatomo-patológicos. Las diferentes clasificaciones sugeridas para estos tumores y el escaso número de casos descritos en la literatura hacen difícil conocer con exactitud cuantos son los casos reales publicados hasta el día de hoy. Material y métodos: presentamos tres nuevos casos de PIOC originados a partir de una lesión quística previa que fueron tratados en nuestro centro. Dos en región posterior mandibular que es el lugar de más frecuente aparición, y un tercero en maxilar superior. Explicamos el tipo de cirugía llevado a cabo…

Terapia trans-cranica ad ultrasuoni focalizzati guidati da Risonanza Magnetica: studio retrospettivo di semeiotica neuroradiologica intra-operatoria

2019

SCOPO DEL LAVORO: Valutare retrospettivamente le caratteristiche di semeiotica neuroradiologica delle lesioni indotte in pazienti sottoposti a talamotomia unilaterale del nucleo Vim mediante l’utilizzo di un sistema trans-cranico ad ultrasuoni focalizzati guidati da RM (tcMRgFUS). MATERIALI E METODI: Cinquanta pazienti sono stati sottoposti a talamotomia mediante tcMRgFUS per tremore essenziale refrattario a terapia medica (n = 39) o per tremore in malattia di Parkinson (n = 11). Esaminando sequenze FRFSE T2-pesate (2mm, no gap) acquisite sia intra-operatoriamente che nel successivo follow-up RM a 48h, è stata valutata la presenza e le dimensioni delle aree lesionali concentriche precedente…

Korkeakoulujen uraohjauksen käytäntöjä kehittämässä

2011

Julkaisuun on koottu korkeakoulujen uraohjaajan asiantuntijaohjelmassa (2008 - 2010) tehtyjä kehittämishankkeita. Teksteissä kuvataan eri korkeakoulujen uraohjauksen tilannetta ja kehittämistoimia. Suomalaisten korkeakoulujen opinto- ja uraohjauksen kehittämiseen on kiinnitetty lisääntyvää huomiota viimeisen vuosikymmenen aikana. Teksteissä kuvataan ensisijaisesti yksilö- ja ryhmäohjauksen lupaavia käytänteitä. Opiskelijakeskeiset käytänteet liitetään osaksi ohjausjärjestelyjen kokonaiskehittämistä verkostomaisesti järjestettyjen ohjauksen palvelumallin (VOP) avulla.

Incursioni dello straordinario nell’ordinario

2021

Si tratta di un commento al volume di Salvatore Settis, "Incursioni. Arte contemporanea e tradizione", Feltrinelli, 2020. La nota si inserisce in un dialogo a più voci a cura di Monica Centanni e Giuseppe Pucci dal titolo "Una lettura corale di: Salvatore Settis, Incursioni. Arte contemporanea e tradizione, Feltrinelli, 2020" La nota rilegge il volume di Settis mettendo a fuoco due autori: Bill Viola e Giuseppe Penone e collega questi artisti a una riflessione filosofica più ampia che mira a cogliere lo straordinario dell'arte e della natura nella vita di ogni giorno.

Intraocular pressure and central corneal thickness in an old French population: The MONTRACHET study

2013

Purpose: To describe the distribution of intraocular pressure (IOP) and central corneal thickness (CCT) in an old French population. Methods: About 9000 individuals 65 years and older were included in the 3C cohort study since 1999 in 3 French cities (Bordeaux, Dijon and Montpellier). In Dijon, an additional ophthalmic examination was performed 10 years after the initial inclusions to assess the relation between systemic age-related diseases and eye diseases in the MONTRACHET Study (Maculopathy Optic Nerve nuTRition neurovAsCular and HEarT diseases). In this population-based stuy a thorough eye examination and a questionnaire were undertaken in each participant. Intraocular pressure (IOP) w…

O Józefie Kantym Ossolińskim, winie i burzliwym przebiegu sejmiku przedkonwokacyjnego w Łucku zimą 1764 r

2022

Urodzony w 1707 r. Józef Kanty Ossoliński na początku lat 60. XVIII w. zaliczał się do liderów obozu republikanów koronnych i grona najbardziej wpływowych magnatów w kraju. Predestynowały go do tego staranne wykształcenie, rozległe majątki ziemskie, a także urodzenie. Aktywny od końca lat 20. XVIII w. w życiu politycznym Rzeczypospolitej Obojga Narodów, postanowił wykorzystać bezkrólewie po śmierci Augusta III dla rozwoju swojej kariery publicznej. W jego planach istotne znaczenie miało przeprowadzenie w taki sposób sejmiku przedkonwokacyjnego wołyńskiego w Łucku, aby podjęto na nim decyzje korzystne dla obozu republikanów. Dlatego też natychmiast po wydaniu 12 listopada 1763 r. przez pryma…

αβ defensin antimicrobial peptide (BPDEF) from the invasive red sea mussel Brachidontes pharaonis (P. Fischer, 1870)

The immune system that plays a major role in determining host fitness in the wild, i.e. under the constraints imposed by ecology and life history. Permanent conflict interactions with the environment are the natural situation for a living creature. To partially resolve this, the immune system evolved and is characterized by an enormous variety of mechanisms and effectors, including the AMPs, although their specificity is poor. In fact, AMPs are universal and extremely successful in dealing with a huge range of pathogens, including bacteria, fungi, protozoa and viruses Amps are oligopeptides composed of varying number of amino acids with a broad spectrum of targeted organisms ranging from vi…
