DOI: 10.1002/acm2.12160
Abstract: Abstract The accurate delivery of respiratory‐gated volumetric modulated arc therapy (VMAT) treatment plans presents a challenge since the gantry rotation and collimator leaves must be repeatedly stopped and set into motion during each breathing cycle.… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.brs.2020.03.011
Abstract: BACKGROUND The therapeutic potential of transcutaneous auricular VNS (taVNS) is currently being explored for numerous clinical applications. However, optimized response for different clinical indications may depend on specific neuromodulation parameters, and systematic assessments of their… read more here.

DOI: 10.1117/1.jmi.10.1.016002
Abstract: Abstract. Purpose We hypothesize that in vivo respiratory-gated micro computed tomography (micro-CT) imaging can noninvasively provide structural and functional information about the lungs in a cigarette-exposure model of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease in mice. Approach… read more here.

DOI: 10.14814/phy2.13074
Abstract: In this study, we aim to quantify the differences in lung metrics measured in free‐breathing and mechanically ventilated rodents using respiratory‐gated micro‐computed tomography. Healthy male Sprague‐Dawley rats were anesthetized with ketamine/xylazine and scanned with a… read more here.
