With this technique,high doses(>190 Gy) of radiation are delivered to the tumor through radioembolization performed in a segmental fashion, potentially increasing the radiation dose to the tumor while minimizing injury to the liver parenchyma. The aim of this review is to provide a summary of the indications, device choice, dosimetry, procedure, clinical outcomes, and toxicity of RS based on the clinical series currently available.展开更多

The present study develops a flexible, ultra-low cost conductive hybrid elastomer(CHE), which possesses high responsive capabilities to stress/strain and humidity. CHE was composed of polydimethylsiloxane(PDMS) and starch hydrogel(SH), enabling great elasticity(56 kPa),high conductivity(10^(-2)S/m) and high sensitivity to external stimuli(gauge factor of CHE under stress and strain are 0.71 and 2.22, respectively, and sensitivity to humidity is 1.2 × 10^(-6)S/m per RH%). These properties render CHE a promising candidate for artificial skin and wearable electronics applications of continuously monitoring environmental information.展开更多
