Sentence examples for organ dose from inspiring English sources

This work quantified the accuracy of organ dose estimates obtained by an automated segmentation algorithm.

For thin shields, contributions from ions heavier than alpha particles comprise at least half of the organ dose equivalent.

We hypothesized that the autosegmentation algorithm is sufficiently accurate to provide organ dose estimates, since small errors delineating organ boundaries will have minimal effect when computing mean organ dose.

The results demonstrate that the automated segmentation algorithm can provide accurate organ dose estimates despite some segmentation errors.

Secondary neutron production contributions in thick shields also tend to be as large, or larger, than the heavy ion contributions to the organ dose equivalents.

For thick shields, such as the ISS locations, heavy ions contribute less than 30% and in some cases less than 10% of the organ dose equivalent.

These models will enable organ dose calculations and accurate risk estimation via effective dose (ED) or Life Attributable risk (LAR).

Adult female breast tissue was located within an average anterior angle of 155° (123-187°).Organ-based dose modulation CT using an anterior 120° arc can reduce the organ dose in the anterior aspect of the thorax with a compensatory organ dose increase posteriorly without impairment of image quality.

Breast tissue location across the anterior aspect of the thorax was retrospectively assessed in 100 consecutive thoracic MDCT examinations.There was a 17-47% decrease (p = < 0.05) in anterior thoracic organ dose and a maximum 52% increase (p = < 0.05) in posterior thoracic organ dose using organ-based dose modulation compared with tube current modulation.

The discrete number of target points of MAX organs resulted in a reduced organ dose and dose equivalent compared to the results of CAM organs especially for SPE, and should be further investigated.

In PET the highest organ dose by far was observed for the bladder.> -wrap-foot> n.a.a
