First measurements with a plastic scintillation dosimeter at the Australian MRI-LINAC. Abstract MRI-LINACs combine MRI and LINAC technologies with the potential for image guided radiation therapy with optimal soft-tissue contrast. In this work, we present the advantages and limitations of plastic scintillation dosimeters (PSDs) for relative dosimetry with MRI-LINACs. PSDs possess many desirable qualities, including magnetic field insensitivity and irradiation angle independence, which are expected to make them suitable for dosimetry with MRI-LINACs. An in-house PSD was used to measure field size output factors as well as a percent depth dose distribution and the beam quality index TPR 20/10…

Plastic Beach is the third studio album by British virtual band Gorillaz, released on 3 March 2010 by Parlophone internationally and by Virgin Records in the United States. Plastic Beach evolved from an unfinished project entitled Carousel, which Gorillaz co-creators Damon Albarn and Jamie Hewlett began conceptualizing in late 2007 after collaborating on the stage production Monkey: Journey to the West.

The album features a larger roster of guest artists compared t…
