Solar Neutrinos Before and After KamLAND
We use the recently reported KamLAND measurements on oscillations of reactor anti-neutrinos, together with the data of previously reported solar neutrino experiments, to show th...

Epoxy Resins in Electron Microscopy
A method of embedding biological specimens in araldite 502 (Ciba) has been developed for materials available in the United States. Araldite-embedded tissues are suitable for ele...
Low-dose lung computed tomography screening before age 55: estimates of the mortality reduction required to outweigh the radiation-induced cancer risk
Objectives To estimate the risk of radiation-induced lung cancer mortality from three annual low-dose lung computed tomography (CT) screens before age 55 years (starting at age ...
Derivation of Fixed Partial Charges for Amino Acids Accommodating a Specific Water Model and Implicit Polarization
We have developed the IPolQ method for fitting nonpolarizable point charges to implicitly represent the energy of polarization for systems in pure water. The method involves ite...
Three-dimensional computed tomography of acetabular fractures.
Computer programs that produce 3D surface reformations from sets of contiguous axial CT scans were used in evaluating a variety of acetabular fractures in 20 patients. The 3D im...
Generalized Kohn-Sham theory for electronic excitations in realistic systems
Instead of expressing the total energy of an interacting electron system as a functional of the one-particle density as in the Hohenberg-Kohn-Sham theory, we use a conventional ...
Maximum likelihood fitting using ordinary least squares algorithms
Abstract In this paper a general algorithm is provided for maximum likelihood fitting of deterministic models subject to Gaussian‐distributed residual variation (including any t...
Computer generated images for medical applications
Two computer graphics systems for the presentation of biomedical information for diagnosis and treatment planning are described. Both systems presented utilize computer tomograp...
CT of dry skulls with craniofacial deformities: accuracy of three-dimensional reconstruction.
Dry skulls from patients with Crouzon syndrome or orbital neurofibromatosis were studied using three-dimensional reconstruction of computed tomography data. The images were comp...
Pulmonary Nodules: Volume Repeatability at Multidetector CT Lung Cancer Screening
Semiautomatic volumetry is sufficiently accurate and repeatable and may be useful in assisting with lung nodule management in a lung cancer screening program.
Single-photon emission computed tomography
The subject of singl-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) is generally reviewed. The basic interaction processes of gamma rays in matter are outlined, and the formation o...
