Brachytherapy heterogeneity correction algorithm
2011
El objetivo de este trabajo de investigación es el estudio de la influencia de heterogeneidades de los tejidos en la dosimetría de braquiterapia. En concreto, hemos desarrollado un algoritmo que tiene en cuenta las calcificaciones localizadas dentro de la próstata y corrige la dosis de referencia en agua. Este algoritmo está basado en un modelo analítico y es aplicable a Sistemas de Planificación del Tratamiento (TPS) comerciales. El modelo analítico tiene un fundamento teórico consistente, y se basa en los valores de referencia (caso homogéneo) y en la definición de una longitud efectiva, que transforma el recorrido dentro de la calcificación en distancias mayores. La energía depositada en…
A sun-induced vegetation fluorescence retrieval method from top of atmosphere radiance for the FLEX/Sentinel-3 TanDEM mission
2015
A new fluorescence retrieval method is proposed to support ESA's 8th Earth Explorer FLuorescence EXplorer/Sentinel-3 (FLEX-S3) candidate tandem mission. FLEX is the first mission specially dedicated to measure the Sun-Induced vegetation chlorophyll fluorescence (SIF) strongly related with the vegetation photosynthetic activity. Most hyperspectral fluorescence retrieval algorithms available in the literature are very sensitive to true reflectance modelization and/or they assume the atmospheric status as known. The proposed algorithm delivers the retrieval of full fluorescence spectrum at canopy level by using only Top Of Atmosphere (TOA) radiances from S3 and FLEX as input. Once the spatial …
Analysis of thermal infrared data from the Digital Airborne Imaging Spectrometer
2001
Thermal infrared data of the Digital Airborne Imaging Spectrometer (DAIS), whose channels 74-79 are in the 8-13 w m waveband region, were analysed with the aim of recovering land surface temperature (LST). DAIS images were acquired over an experimental site where field and laboratory emissivity measurements were performed, and these were used to recover the LST from the six DAIS thermal channels. Atmospheric correction of DAIS data was calculated by means of a nearby radiosounding and a radiative transfer model. DAIS derived LSTs were compared with ground measurements of LST made coincidentally for a few test fields, the central DAIS channels yielding temperatures up to 10°C higher than gro…
Repair Mechanisms for Broadcast Transmissions in Hybrid Cellular & DVB-H Systems
2006
This paper proposes a framework for investigating potential infrastructure cost savings in hybrid cellular and DVB- H systems by performing efficient error repair of broadcast transmissions. The main idea is to reuse as much as possible the existing network infrastructure to provide mobile TV services. The cellular system is not only employed to collect information, but also to send repair data to the users whose conditions are temporarily affected by noise, interference and fading. To enable an easy and efficient implementation of the repair mechanisms we adopt the use of application layer - forward error correction (AL-FEC) with digital fountain coding.
Application Layer FEC for Mobile TV Delivery in IP Datacast Over DVB-H Systems
2009
In this paper we investigate the potential gain that can be obtained in DVB-H using application layer forward error correction (AL-FEC) to perform a multi-burst protection of the transmission for improving the reception of streaming services for mobile terminals. Compared to the conventional approach with link layer multi protocol encapsulation FEC (MPE-FEC), this technique allows to increase the robustness of the DVB-H transmission not only as a function of the capacity devoted for error repair (FEC overhead), but also as a function of the number of bursts jointly encoded. The main drawback of this approach is an increase of the network latency, that can be translated into a larger service…
Characterization of a digital camera as an absolute tristimulus colorimeter
2003
An algorithm is proposed for the spectral and colorimetric characterization of digital still cameras (DSC) which allows them to be used as tele-colorimeters with CIE-XYZ color output, in cd/m2. The spectral characterization consists in the calculation of the color-matching functions from the previously measured spectral sensitivities. The colorimetric characterization consists in trans- forming the raw RGB digital data into absolute tristimulus values CIE-XYZ (in cd/m2) under variable and unknown spectroradiometric conditions. Thus, in the first stage, a gray balance was applied over the raw RGB digital data to convert them into RGB relative colorimetric values. In the second stage, an algo…
Questions and controversies in the study of time-varying functional connectivity in resting fMRI.
2020
The brain is a complex, multiscale dynamical system composed of many interacting regions. Knowledge of the spatiotemporal organization of these interactions is critical for establishing a solid understanding of the brain’s functional architecture and the relationship between neural dynamics and cognition in health and disease. The possibility of studying these dynamics through careful analysis of neuroimaging data has catalyzed substantial interest in methods that estimate time-resolved fluctuations in functional connectivity (often referred to as “dynamic” or time-varying functional connectivity; TVFC). At the same time, debates have emerged regarding the application of TVFC analyses to re…
Correction: Daunorubicin reduces MBNL1 sequestration caused by CUG-repeat expansion and rescues cardiac dysfunctions in a Drosophila model of myotoni…
2018
ABSTRACT Myotonic dystrophy (DM) is a dominantly inherited neuromuscular disorder caused by expression of mutant myotonin-protein kinase (DMPK) transcripts containing expanded CUG repeats. Pathogenic DMPK RNA sequesters the muscleblind-like (MBNL) proteins, causing alterations in metabolism of various RNAs. Cardiac dysfunction represents the second most common cause of death in DM type 1 (DM1) patients. However, the contribution of MBNL sequestration in DM1 cardiac dysfunction is unclear. We overexpressed Muscleblind (Mbl), the Drosophila MBNL orthologue, in cardiomyocytes of DM1 model flies and observed a rescue of heart dysfunctions, which are characteristic of these model flies and resem…
Optometriskie treniņi pacientiem ar idiopātisku nistagmu.

Maģistra darbs ir uzrakstīts angļu valoda uz 47 lapām. Tas satur 28 attēlus, 2 tabulas un 42 atsauces uz literatūras avotiem. Maģistra darba mērķis ir nodemonstrēt optometrisko rehabilitācijas metožu ietekmi uz infantilu idiopātisko nistagmu (IIN). Desmit pacientiem ar IIN (30 ± 14 g.) tika veiktas sekojošas ārstēšanas metodes: prizmas ar bāzi uz āru, krāsotas kontaktlēcas (zīlītes diametrs 5 mm), audio-biofīdbeka metode. Pirms un pēc ārstēšanas tika novērtēts redzes asums un kontrastredze tālumā un stereoredze tuvumā ar labāko subjektīvo korekciju, nistagma apmlitūda un frekvence. Rezultāti parādīja, ka visas ārstēšanas metodes vienādi ietekmēja redzes asuma, nistagma amplitūdas un frekven…
