Generation of Pseudo-CT using Two Sets of MRI Scans for MRI-only Radiation Therapy
(East Carolina University, 2019-07-16)WWith increasing interests in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)-only radiation therapy (RT) and the emergence of MRI system integrated with the linear accelerator, a method substituting the computed tomography (CT) in ... -
Graviton and photon orbitals surrounding a black hole : Application to the supermassive black hole at the Milky Way galactic center, with NIR observational confirmation.
(East Carolina University, 2014)Non-relativistic Quantum Theory fairly accurately describes the resonance phenomena around a black hole, even though black holes are thought of as general relativistic (GR) objects. Graphically and numerically we are able ... -
The high concentration of Arg213 → Gly extracellular superoxide dismutase (EC-SOD) in plasma is caused by a reduction of both heparin and collagen affinities
(East Carolina University, 2005-01-15)The C-terminal region of EC-SOD (extracellular superoxide dismutase) mediates the binding to both heparin/heparan sulphate and type I collagen. A mutation (Arg213→Gly; R213G) within this extracellular matrix-binding region ... -
How Moist Heat Kills Spores of Bacillus subtilis
(East Carolina University, 2007-12)Populations of Bacillus subtilis spores in which 90 to 99.9% of the spores had been killed by moist heat gave only two fractions on equilibrium density gradient centrifugation: a fraction comprised of less dense spores ... -

In Vivo Blood Glucose Quantification Using Raman Spectroscopy
(2012)We here propose a novel Raman spectroscopy method that permits the noninvasive measurement of blood glucose concentration. To reduce the effects of the strong background signals produced by surrounding tissue and to obtain ... -
In vivo imaging and modeling of artery blood pressure wave and interaction with light in time domain
(East Carolina University, 2021-11-29)Artery blood flow driven by pressure wave is essential for human life. The long-term research goal is to establish a foundation for future translation of the imaging photoplethysmography (iPPG) method into applications ... -
An Information-Theoretic Approach to Cellular Decision-Making Strategies: How Rate Distortion Theory Provides an Optimal Method for Describing Binary Cellular Decision-Making Systems
(2014)Rate distortion theory, a branch of information theory, was originally developed to help improve the efficiency of data transmission in telecommunications. It's currently being used as a major modeling method to provide ... -
Inherent Fibrin Fiber Tension Propels Mechanisms of Network Clearance During Fibrinolysis
(2020-02-25)Proper wound healing necessitates both coagulation (the formation of a blood clot) and fibrinolysis (the dissolution of a blood clot). A thrombus resistant to clot dissolution can obstruct blood flow, leading to vascular ... -

Interaction cross sections needed for simulation of secondary electron emission spectra from thin metal foils after fast proton impact
(East Carolina University, 2009)Monte Carlo simulations of secondary electron emission from thin metal foils after fast proton impact require reliable interaction cross sections with the target under consideration. Total and energy differential inelastic ... -
