Clinical, Instrumental and Immunological Follow-Up of Patients with Brain Tumors
Dynamic assessment of 66 patients with different brain tumours was carried out. The clinical, immunological and instrumental (electrophysiological and neuroimaging) follow-up included three groups of cases with stable clinical course, tumour progression and recurrence. Our results confirm that the changes in the functional and immune status of the patients with cerebral neoplasms as well as the alterations in the cerebral function and structure reflect the tumour development and the corresponding therapeutic behaviour. Monitoring of patients status and tumour growth provides opportunity for better disease control and prognosis
Fringe electric fields of flat and cylindrical deflectors inelectrostatic charged particle storage rings
Analytic expressions for the potentials and fields of flat and cylindrical plates, including the fringe fields, are given. The present analysis extends and simplifies the current expression for the fields of flat plates and develops expressions for the fringe fields of cylindrical plates in terms of polar coordinates. The development of a FORTRAN program to output the field strength at a given location within the Proton Electric Dipole Moment (Proton EDM) ring is then described. Fourth-order Runge-Kutta integration is used to investigate the effect of fringe fields on particle and spin dynamics with precision tracking in the proposed Proton EDM experiment.1331sciescopu
