Zdenko KriŽan (1915 - 2005), physician, anatomist and teacher, is an important academic figure of the 20th century, especially in the South Slavic area. He participated in the founding of three anatomical institutes and directed their work. During the years of his career he was teaching and he did scientific research. Prof. KriŽan is author of three compendia of anatomy for Medicine and Dentistry students. The results of his anatomical research, mainly in the area of the head skeleton and blood vessels, were published in national and international scientific journals. This article is a rewiew of prof. KriŽan's biography data.

Purpose: Accurate radiation therapy (RT) for lung cancer is challenging because of the respiratory motion of the tumor and surrounding organs at risk. Recently, non-invasive mechanical ventilation (NIMV) has been investigated as a novel respiratory motion management strategy. Using NIMV, respiratory motion can be minimized, while a larger lung volume yields less overall lung dose.

Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a neurodevelopmental disorder accompanied by narrow interests, difficulties in communication and social interaction, and repetitive behavior. In addition, ASD is frequently associated with eating and feeding problems. Although the symptoms of ASD are more likely to be observed in boys, the prevalence of eating disorders is more common in females.

Background And Purpose: Virtual Unenhanced images (VUE) from contrast-enhanced dual-energy computed tomography (DECT) eliminate manual suppression of contrast-enhanced structures (CES) or pre-contrast scans. CT intensity decreases in high-density structures outside the CES following VUE algorithm application. This study assesses VUE's impact on the radiotherapy workflow of gynecological tumors, comparing dose distribution and cone-beam CT-based (CBCT) position verification to contrast-enhanced CT (CECT) images.

Background: Quantitative RT-PCR is a valuable tool for assessing the gene expression in different human tissues, particularly due to its exceptional sensitivity, accuracy and reliability. However, the choice of adequate control for normalization is a crucial step, greatly affecting the results of all subsequent analyses. So far, only a few studies were focused on the selection of optimal reference genes in left ventricles of failing human hearts, leading to several disparities in experimental results focused on differential gene expression in this area.
