Conspiracy theories, like old habits, die hard. In Monday's New York Times, William Safire, formerly of the Nixon White House, advanced the theory that the Clintons are encouraging Gen. Wesley Clark in his bid for the presidency to extend their nefarious hold over the Democratic Party, keeping Howard Dean's pesky upstarts in check and ensuring that the party keeps a center-left agenda. As Safire sees it, Bill and Hillary are waiting for Bush to become vulnerable (become vulnerable?) so "the politically inexperienced" Clark, having routed all the other Democratic candidates, can step aside to make way for Hillary.
Like a greyhound at the dog track, Safire is already out of the gate, his beady eyes focused on the mechanical rabbit. He has perfected the dubious art of conjecture as smear. And despite his avuncular demeanor, and the esteem in which he's held among colleagues, that shouldn't keep anyone from calling him on the loopiness of his premises or the Times' acquiescence in running them. He genuinely believes there was something dark and covered up in Vince Foster's suicide. He believes that Clark is the Trojan horse for Clinton II. Hell, he probably believes that Sidney Blumenthal is attempting to control his thoughts by beaming alpha waves off the top of the Chrysler Building. The difference between William Safire and the average crazy old coot to be found in any New York City diner explaining to anyone who listens that the aliens have taken over is that Safire gets paid for his ramblings and has a better tailor. Not much difference at all.
This paper presents the conceptual thermal design and analysis results for the Spectroscopy of the Atmosphere using Far-Infrared Emission (SAFIRE) instrument. SAFIRE has been proposed for Mission to Planet Earth to study ozone chemistry in the middle atmosphere using remote sensing of the atmosphere in the far-infrared (21-87 microns) and mid- infrared (9-16 microns) spectra. SAFIRE requires that far-IR detectors be cooled to 3-4 K and mid-IR detectors to 80 K for the expected mission lifetime of five years. A superfluid helium dewar and Stirling-cycle cryocoolers provide the cryogenic temperatures required by the infrared detectors. The proposed instrument thermal design uses passive thermal control techniques to reject 465 watts of waste heat from the instrument.
Results: 80 questionnaires were distributed and analyzed. The average age ofmedical imaging technicians was 30 years old. There were 32 women and 48 men.Most of the medical imaging technicians worked in private centers (n=6). 75% ofmedical imaging technicians had been in practice for more than 5 years. 75% ofmedical imaging technicians gave the wrong answer regarding the use of dosereduction software. Finally, only a third of the practitioners had received trainingin patient radiation protection.
The motivation of this study is the general lack of knowledgeregarding the efficiency and the appropriate use of CT scannerautomatic exposure control system. Today, practically all CTsystems are delivered with Automatic Exposure Control (AEC)systems operating with tube current modulation in threedimensions (combined modulation) [2].
Eighty questionnaires distributed, eighty were retrieved andanalyzed, for an overall response rate of 100%. The average age ofthe manipulators was 30 years old. There were 32 women and 48men, i.e. a sex ratio of 1.5 in favor of men. Most of the technicians(n=56) worked in private centers (n=6). 75% of manipulators hadbeen in practice for more than 5 years. Those with more than10 years of professional experience were 24 (30%). There weremainly 41 superior radiology and medical imaging technicians(TSRIM) or 51.25%. The number of masters was 20% or 25%,that of assistant manipulators 2% or 2.5% and 17 radiologists or21.2%.
The CT scanner is the most significant contributor to radiationdose on radiological examination, although the frequency of theexamination is far below other modalities [16]. In order to controlthis radiation dose, manufactures of CT scan have equipped theirunits with built-in software called Automatic Exposure Control(AEC). Sari, et al. showed the use of CARE Dose 4D softwarereduced dose of up to 54.34% while maintaining image quality.CARE Dose 4D (Siemens Healthineers, Erlangen, Germany)comprises a series of dose-saving technologies in which the tubecurrent is adapted according to patient size, shape and density,whilst maintaining a user-defined reference image quality[17]. CARE Dose 4D provides the following: adaptation of mAsaccording to patient size based on the topogram (scout scan);angular modulation of the tube current to reflect patient shape;and z-modulation of the tube current to reflect patient shape(topogram-based modulation in a more fine-tuned manner).Computed Tomography (CT) systems routinely use AutomaticExposure Control (AEC), which modulates the tube current.However, for optimal use, there are several aspects of an AECsystem that need to be considered. When optimizing the CT radiation dose and image quality, the projection angle of the localiser, patient centring, protocol selection, scanning directionand the use of protective devices requires special attention [18].Toshiba, Philips and General Electric (GE) use software such asSure Exposure, CARE Right and Auto or Smart mA to reduce thedose absorbed to the CT scanner like Siemens.
