In radiation therapy, bolus is a modality that helps compensate for differences in body contours, stop skin sparring, and to raise dose buildup on the patient’s skin (Washington, p. 171). Bolus is a tissue equivalent material, but there is not just one type of bolus. Superflab is a commercial bolus that most clinical sites use, but other bolus variations are also available for use.

3. PROBLEM & RESEARCH SETTING 3.1 Problem Statement Numerous research studies have been conducted by the CII and also other FEP researchers with regards to the implementation and critical importance of front end planning in project success. But there are very few studies that provide quantifiable statistical data supporting FEP adoption. CII has published data analysis for FEP data which analyses the relationship between project PDRI scores and scope definition, and project cost, schedule and…
Autocorrelation is not expected to be an issue with the model, given that the it is not using time series data, and it can therefore be assumed that there is no autocorrelation present in the model. To make sure that there is no perfect collinearity present in the model, it is recommended to run a collinearity test of the model (see: Exhibit 1.1). If a variable generate a VIF (Variance Inflation Factors) value above 10.0, the model might have a collinearity problem and attempts to correct the…
(Massy-Westropp, Nicola M., et al., 2011). This experiment seeks to explore the distinction of gender may potentially have on force exertion. Male physiological mechanism generates more force in comparison to the fairer sex in both hands. The null hypothesis is that the gender of the participants is not relevant and that there will not be a difference in the force being exerted by either gender. Materials and Methods…

According to graph, the survival curve of intervention group is above the survival curve of control group, which means, the higher rate of myocardial infarct in the control group. Thus, the intervention group has the better survival than control group.The hazard ratio is 0.57 (95% CI 0.35 to 0.87) Intervention the term intervention[T.Intervention] to the left of the results indicates that intervention=1 is the numerator of the hazard ratio. In this case, the hazard ratio is 0.57 which indicates…
