Abstract: Photon-based radiosurgery is widely used for treating local and regional tumors. The key to improving the quality of radiosurgery is to increase the dose falloff rate from high dose regions inside the tumor to low dose regions of nearby healthy tissues and structures. Dynamic photon painting (DPP) further increases dose falloff rate by treating a target by moving a beam source along a dynamic trajectory, where the speed, direction and even dose rate of the beam source change constantly during irradiation. DPP creates dose gradient that rivals proton Bragg Peak and outperforms Gamma Knife® radiosurgery.

Abstract: A mounting structure for equipment compartment bottom plate is provided. The bottom plate is detachably connected to a skeleton boundary beam of the equipment compartment. A sliding rail is fixedly connected to a side of the bottom plate where the bottom plate is lap-jointed to a skeleton lateral beam of the equipment compartment. One of the sliding rail and the skeleton lateral beam is provided with a recess and the other is provided with a protrusion engaged with the recess. In the mounting structure, the connection of the bottom plate and the skeleton lateral beam is achieved by the engagement of the recess and the protrusion. Therefore, connecting pieces for connecting the bottom plate and the skeleton lateral beam are removed and the number of the connecting pieces is significantly reduced.

Abstract: The present invention is a method and system for developing a dynamic scheme for Gamma Knife radiosurgery based on the concept of “dose-painting” to take advantage of robotic patient positioning systems on the Gamma Knife C and Perfexion units. The spherical high dose volume created by the Gamma Knife unit will be viewed as a 3D spherical “paintbrush”, and treatment planning is reduced to finding the best route of this “paintbrush” to “paint” a 3D tumor volume. Under the dose-painting concept, Gamma Knife radiosurgery becomes dynamic, where the patient is moving continuously under the robotic positioning system.

Abstract: A bogie for a high-speed railway vehicle includes a wheel set, an axle box, a primary spring suspension device, a frame, a secondary spring suspension device and a foundation braking device. A wheel of the wheel set has an LMA wheel tread. The foundation braking device is mounted by a three-point hitch structure. The axle box is a structure which is separatable in a vertical direction, and an off-line safety protecting device is mounted at a lower portion of the axle box. A traction rod of the secondary spring suspension device is a single traction rod. A center pin is provided with an integral hoisting device. Two anti-yaw dampers, as a group, are arranged at either side of the secondary spring suspension device, and the two anti-yaw dampers have the same damping coefficient.

Abstract: A method for implementing multi-operating system, applied to an electronic apparatus in which a Solid State Disk, SSD, is provided, the SSD including a plurality of partitions each of which corresponding to a unique logical snapshot table, and a plurality of operating systems being installed in different partitions respectively, wherein the method includes: determining a logical snapshot table corresponding to an operating system to be loaded currently as a first logical snapshot table during a Power On Self Test process of a basic input/output system; and determining a position of a partition in the SSD which corresponds to a reading/writing operation based on the first logical snapshot table if the reading/writing operation is performed on the SSD in a manner of Logical Block Addressing.

Abstract: Techniques for synchronizing personal contact information with or from different sources are disclosed. Through a website (i.e., a server or system), all fractional personal contact information is consolidated, synchronized, processed or updated. In return, any of the resources may be synchronized to get a copy of the latest version of the contact information. When contacts in a list by a registered user are also registered with the server, any of the contacts may update their respective contact information that can be timely reflected in the list. As a result, the registered user always has a latest version of the contact information for some or all of his/her contacts without even knowing some has already been changed or updated. Based on the contact information, other features including proof delivery of emails, recycling of deleted contacts, a “black” list, contact relationship levels and anonymous email, short messaging and calls are provided.
