Background: Optimization of localizer radiograph and bolus tracking doses is necessary, as their dose proportion may increase with a decreasing diagnostic scan dose in pediatric cardiothoracic computed tomography (CT).
Objective: To evaluate the radiation dose proportions of the localizer radiograph and bolus tracking in low-dose pediatric cardiothoracic CT.
Materials And Methods: For low-dose pediatric cardiothoracic CT, a posteroanterior localizer radiograph was acquired with 80 kV, and 35 mA or 20 mA in 852 infants (age<1 year).

Aims: To explore the influences of workplace bullying experiences, witnessing workplace bullying and bystander types on Speaking up for patient safety (SUPS) among hospital nurses.
Design: Cross-sectional study.
Methods: A survey was conducted in September 2021 using a structured questionnaire about workplace bullying experiences, witnessing workplace bullying, bystander types, and SUPS.

Background: Basocellular carcinoma (BCC) is the most prevalent skin malignancy, often localizing to the UV-exposed skin of the face. While most BCC is relatively indolent, aggressive subtypes, including infiltrative BCC, pose the treatment challenges of ensuring functional and aesthetic preservation with a high risk of recurrence.
Case: A 78-year-old female patient complained of recurrent left chin BCC of infiltrative subtype, which was first treated in 2013 by wide local excision and adjuvant radiotherapy.

Physics-driven deep learning (PD-DL) methods have gained popularity for improved reconstruction of fast MRI scans. Though supervised learning has been used in early works, there has been a recent interest in unsupervised learning methods for training PD-DL. In this work, we take inspiration from statistical image processing and compressed sensing (CS), and propose a novel convex loss function as an alternative learning strategy.
