  • Publication number: 20040242991
    Abstract: A method for determining dosage when planning radiotherapy and/or radiosurgery procedures can include imaging an irradiation target area using an imaging method, which can differentiate functional and/or biologically active regions of the irradiation target area. Ascertained activity values can be allocated to individual regions of the imaged irradiation target and irradiation doses can be assigned to the regions in accordance with the activity values. A nominal dosage distribution, which can be ascertained from the irradiation dosages for the regions, can be used as an input value for treatment planning.

  • Patent number: 5688021
    Abstract: The invention relates to a body for a motor car, especially a small car, in which the load-bearing structure of the body is formed by what is referred to as a "space-frame" structure. In the floor region and in the side region behind the doors, surface elements are integrated in a sealing and permanent manner into the framework structure and are in part closed off by window panes inserted in a sealing manner or by a roof inserted in a sealing manner. At the front, the body is closed off by a nose module which can be bolted on in a sealing manner, can be preassembled ready for operation and can be closed off laterally and at the rear by a side door fitted in a sealing manner and a tailgate, respectively. The outward-facing flat sides of the sections of the framework structure which lie above the beltline are exposed and in this region the bars are in each case shaped to match the desired surface profile of the body and--apart from a paint finish--directly form the body exterior surface area.
