Maclean et al. 6 used the statistical techniques described by us 3 to confirm that the CD34+ cell dose based on IBW correlated better with engraftment than that based on ABW, but felt that this ...

A method for the calculation of the radiation dose rate to extracorporeal blood flowing through a cylindrical beta irradiator is developed. Turbulent and laminar blood flow are treated separately.

Implementing a strategy that focuses on dose rounding for chemotherapies can have a 3-fold impact of decreasing drug costs, minimizing drug waste, and improving treatment efficiency. This strategy and ...
