Upgrade of Bioreactor System Providing Physiological Stimuli
to Engineered Musculoskeletal Tissues
(2017)
A novel central control interface (CCI) is developed to improve the modular bioreactor system with regard to extendability and modifiability in Tissue Engineering (TE) applications. This paper presents the results developed in the project with open-source hardware and the graphical programming system LabVIEW. A new platform independent User Interface was further developed to contribute to the new flexibility of the device.
This study investigates differences between treatment plans generated by Ray Tracing (RT) and Monte Carlo (MC) calculation algorithms in homogeneous and heterogeneous body regions. Particularly, we focus on the head and on the thorax, respectively, for robotic stereotactic radiotherapy and radiosurgery with Cyberknife. Radiation plans for tumors located in the head and in the thorax region have been calculated and compared to each other in 47 cases and several tumor types.
