Proton and Carbon Ion Beam Spot Size Measurement Using 5 Different Detector Types.
Int J Part Ther
March 2025
Institute of Medical Physics and Radiation Protection, University of Applied Sciences, Giessen, Germany.
Purpose: The spot size of scanned particle beams is of crucial importance for the correct dose delivery and, therefore, plays a significant role in the quality assurance (QA) of pencil beam scanning ion beam therapy.
Materials And Methods: This study compares 5 detector types-radiochromic film, ionization chamber (IC) array, flat panel detector, multiwire chamber, and IC-for measuring the spot size of proton and carbon ion beams.
Results: Variations of up to 30% were found between detectors, underscoring the impact of detector choice on QA outcomes.
Peripheral blood biomarkers as differential diagnostic markers of disease severity in neonates with hyperbilirubinemia.

Department of Hematology and Immunohematology, School of Biomedical and Laboratory Sciences, College of Medicine and Health Sciences, University of Gondar, Gondar, Ethiopia.
Background: Blood biomarkers offers an independent insight for the pathophysiology of hyperbilirubinemia. However, they are not practically used for the differential diagnosis of the hyperbilirubinemia severity. Therefore, the current study aimed to assess the differential diagnostic value of peripheral blood biomarkers with disease severity as an alternative.

EJIFCC
December 2024
National Reference Laboratory, Abu Dhabi, UAE.
Background: An increasing number of wearable medical devices are being used for personal monitoring and professional health care purposes. These mobile health devices collect a variety of biometric and health data but do not routinely connect to a patient's electronic health record (EHR) or electronic medical record (EMR) for access by a patient's health care team.
Methods: The International Federation of Clinical Chemistry and Laboratory Medicine (IFCC) Committee on Mobile Health and Bioengineering in Laboratory Medicine (C-MHBLM) developed consensus recommendations for consideration when interfacing mobile health devices to an EHR/EMR.
Assessing Mean Glandular Dose in Mammography in Jordan According to American College of Radiology (ACR) Standards.
Cancer Manag Res
January 2025
School of Physics, Universiti Sains Malaysia, Penang, 11800 Gelugor, Malaysia.
Introduction: Breast cancer is a significant worldwide health issue, particularly in Jordan, where early detection via mammography is essential for effective disease management. Despite the little radiation risk associated with mammography, it is crucial to monitor radiation exposure to guarantee patient safety. This study intends to assess skin entrance exposure and compute the Mean Glandular Dose (MGD) in mammography units to determine adherence to established criteria and pinpoint areas for enhancement.
