Virtual simulation of a boost field has the potential to elegantly link the simplicity of a conventional simulation with the accurate tumor bed identification provided by a CT data set. It was shown to be feasible and favorable with regard to the patient, the medical staff, and the simulator time. Moreover, it offers a visualization of dose distributions, which was found helpful in some cases.
scite is a Brooklyn-based startup that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
