Abstract
OBJECTIVE To compare six different scenarios for correcting for breathing motion in abdominal dual-energy CT (DECT) perfusion measurements. METHODS Rigid [RRComm(80 kVp)] and non-rigid [NRComm(80 kVp)] registration of commercially available CT perfusion software, custom non-rigid registration [NRCustom(80 kVp], demons algorithm) and a control group [CG(80 kVp)] without motion correction were evaluated using 80 kVp images. Additionally, NRCustom was applied to dual-energy (DE)-blended [NRCustom(DE)] and virtual non-contrast [NRCustom(VNC)] images, yielding six evaluated scenarios. After motion correction, perfusion maps were calculated using a combined maximum slope/Patlak model. For qualitative evaluation, three blinded radiologists independently rated motion correction quality and resulting perfusion maps on a four-point scale (4 = best, 1 = worst). For quantitative evaluation, relative changes in metric values, R(2) and residuals of perfusion model fits were calculated. RESULTS For motion-corrected images, mean ratings differed significantly [NRCustom(80 kVp) and NRCustom(DE), 3.3; NRComm(80 kVp), 3.1; NRCustom(VNC), 2.9; RRComm(80 kVp), 2.7; CG(80 kVp), 2.7; all p < 0.05], except when comparing NRCustom(80 kVp) with NRCustom(DE) and RRComm(80 kVp) with CG(80 kVp). NRCustom(80 kVp) and NRCustom(DE) achieved the highest reduction in metric values [NRCustom(80 kVp), 48.5%; NRCustom(DE), 45.6%; NRComm(80 kVp), 29.2%; NRCustom(VNC), 22.8%; RRComm(80 kVp), 0.6%; CG(80 kVp), 0%]. Regarding perfusion maps, NRCustom(80 kVp) and NRCustom(DE) were rated highest [NRCustom(80 kVp), 3.1; NRCustom(DE), 3.0; NRComm(80 kVp), 2.8; NRCustom(VNC), 2.6; CG(80 kVp), 2.5; RRComm(80 kVp), 2.4] and had significantly higher R(2) and lower residuals. Correlation between qualitative and quantitative evaluation was low to moderate. CONCLUSION Non-rigid motion correction improves spatial alignment of the target region and fit of CT perfusion models. Using DE-blended and DE-VNC images for deformable registration offers no significant improvement. ADVANCES IN KNOWLEDGE Non-rigid algorithms improve the quality of abdominal CT perfusion measurements but do not benefit from DECT post processing.

Abstract
The purpose was to investigate the effect of 25 weeks heavy strength training in young elite cyclists. Nine cyclists performed endurance training and heavy strength training (ES) while seven cyclists performed endurance training only (E). ES, but not E, resulted in increases in isometric half squat performance, lean lower body mass, peak power output during Wingate test, peak aerobic power output (W(max)), power output at 4 mmol L(-1)[la(-)], mean power output during 40-min all-out trial, and earlier occurrence of peak torque during the pedal stroke (P < 0.05). ES achieved superior improvements in W(max) and mean power output during 40-min all-out trial compared with E (P < 0.05). The improvement in 40-min all-out performance was associated with the change toward achieving peak torque earlier in the pedal stroke (r = 0.66, P < 0.01). Neither of the groups displayed alterations in VO2max or cycling economy. In conclusion, heavy strength training leads to improved cycling performance in elite cyclists as evidenced by a superior effect size of ES training vs E training on relative improvements in power output at 4 mmol L(-1)[la(-)], peak power output during 30-s Wingate test, W(max), and mean power output during 40-min all-out trial.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The aim of this study was to evaluate the current quality of care in newly diagnosed bladder cancer patients in a regional representative sample of German urologists. MATERIAL AND METHODS Using a standardized questionnaire clinical and pathological data from over 400 patients with newly diagnosed urothelial carcinoma of the bladder (UCB) between January and December 2010 were collected from urology health care practitioners in northern Germany. As diagnostic and therapeutic decisions were not influenced by a specific protocol these findings represent current regional practice patterns. RESULTS Complete data of 359 patients were available for analysis. The median patient age at diagnosis was 72 years (range 29-98 years) with a male:female ratio of 3:1. The main reasons for transurethral resection of the bladder (TURB) were microhematuria (45.4 %), conspicuous ultrasound findings (12.8 %) and gross hematuria (11.7 %). Using photodynamic diagnosis (PDD) TURB was performed in 78 patients (21.7 %). The results of histopathology showed papillary urothelial neoplasm of low malignant potential (PUNLMP) in 8 patients (2.2 %), pTa in 202 (56.3 %), pTis in 7 (1.9 %), pT1 in 88 (24.5 %) and ≥pT2 bladder cancer in 54 (15 %) patients. Multiple tumors were recorded in 107 patients (29.8 %). A repeat TURB was performed in 130 patients (36.8 %) in a median of 45 days and residual tumor tissue was found in 79 of these patients (60.8 %). Immediate postoperative instillation chemotherapy was performed in 152 patients (42.3 %) and adjuvant intravesical maintenance therapy was performed in 142 patients (39.6 %, mitomycin 29.2 % vs. BCG 10.4 %). Patients treated with repeat TURB or adjuvant instillation therapy were more likely to have higher tumor stages and grades (p-values< 0.001). Overall 25 patients (7.7 %) experienced disease recurrence within 3 months. Lower tumor stage and grade, performance of repeat TURB and administration of adjuvant intravesical therapy were associated with reduced early disease recurrence (p-values ≤ 0.009). CONCLUSIONS The current study presents contemporary findings and practice patterns in patients with newly diagnosed bladder cancer. Interestingly, the rates of immediate postoperative instillation chemotherapy and maintenance intravesical therapy were lower than expected. Utilization of PDD-TURB is still underrepresented. Remarkable is the high number of patients with residual tumor in the repeat TURB. Differences in patient counselling, hospital practice standards and compliance factors most likely contribute to variations in guideline adherence.

Abstract
Deep brain stimulation (DBS) provides a very effective treatment for a number of neurological diseases including Parkinson's disease, movement disorders and epilepsy. In DBS microelectrodes are positioned in defined cerebral target areas and connected to a pacemaker. It is most often performed as an awake craniotomy with intraoperative testing. Various anesthesiological regimes are used to protect the patient from surgical stress on the one hand and to achieve ideal test conditions on the other. They include local anesthesia or scalp blocks, intermittent general anesthesia or analgosedation with or without airway protection; however, anesthetic agents interfere with hemodynamic stability and ventilation, with vigilance and cooperation and in addition with the symptoms and microelectrode recording. Guidance and communication have a pivotal impact on patient needs for pharmacological interventions. With increasing numbers of DBS procedures, anesthesiologists are more often faced with patients carrying brain pacemakers. For anesthesia the characteristics of the disease as well as the respective long-term medication have to be considered. In addition, the rules for handling patients with pacemakers need to be followed to avoid both dysfunction of the generator and tissue damage due to overheating of the electrodes.

Abstract
Linac4, a 160 MeV normal-conducting H(-) linear accelerator, is the first step in the upgrade of the beam intensity available from the LHC proton injectors at CERN. The Linac4 Low Energy Beam Transport (LEBT) line from the pulsed 2 MHz RF driven ion source, to the 352 MHz RFQ (Radiofrequency Quadrupole) has been built and installed at a test stand, and has been used to transport and match to the RFQ a pulsed 14 mA H(-) beam at 45 keV. A temporary slit-and-grid emittance measurement system has been put in place to characterize the beam delivered to the RFQ. In this paper a description of the LEBT and its beam diagnostics is given, and the results of beam emittance measurements and beam transmission measurements through the RFQ are compared with the expectation from simulations.

Abstract
CERN's Linac4 45 kV H(-) ion sources prototypes are installed at a dedicated ion source test stand and in the Linac4 tunnel. The operation of the pulsed hydrogen injection, RF sustained plasma, and pulsed high voltages are described. The first experimental results of two prototypes relying on 2 MHz RF-plasma heating are presented. The plasma is ignited via capacitive coupling, and sustained by inductive coupling. The light emitted from the plasma is collected by viewports pointing to the plasma chamber wall in the middle of the RF solenoid and to the plasma chamber axis. Preliminary measurements of optical emission spectroscopy and photometry of the plasma have been performed. The design of a cesiated ion source is presented. The volume source has produced a 45 keV H(-) beam of 16-22 mA which has successfully been used for the commissioning of the Low Energy Beam Transport (LEBT), Radio Frequency Quadrupole (RFQ) accelerator, and chopper of Linac4.

Abstract
Abstract
Background: HER2 testing by immunohistochemistry (IHC) is prone to inter-observer variability and subjective interpretation. Pathologist-assisted digital image analysis is recommended in the CAP/ASCO guidelines to improve interpretive consistency. As a quality benchmark, HER2 IHC results should correlate with HER2 fluorescence in-situ hybridization (FISH) in >95% of positive and negative cases. HER2-CONNECT® (Visiopharm, Hoersholm Denmark) is a digital analysis algorithm that scores stained membrane interconnectivity rather than relying solely on staining of individual cells. As such, it can be thought of as a surrogate for the so-called “chickenwire” pattern characteristic of true HER2 positive tumors. In this study we applied HER2-CONNECT® analysis with pathologist quantitative interpretation (HC+PQI) to a set of breast tumors with known HER2 FISH status to assess concordance.
Design: Breast carcinoma tissue sections previously stained with HER2 IHC (HercepTest) and interpreted manually were retrospectively re-submitted for HC+PQI. These included core and excisional biopsies from primary and metastatic sites. Fixation times were documented within recommended guidelines. HER2 FISH (PathVysion) was performed on all cases. Using connectivity scores on a scale of 0 - 1.0 from the analyzed regions, a pathologist determined the overall% of HER2 positive tumor cells in the sample (since HER2-CONNECT reports connectivity, but not tumor cell quantitation) and reported a final score per CAP/ASCO guidelines (<10% = 1+, 10-30% = 2+, >30% = 3+).
Results: 190 cases comprised the analysis set, including 77 3+, 73 2+, and 40 0/1+ as scored in the original reports. 66 cases were HER2 FISH amplified (64/77, 83% of the original 3+ cases and 2/73, 2.7% of 2+ cases) and 6 cases were FISH equivocal. None of the 0/1+ cases were HER2 FISH amplified. Using HC+PQI, the new scores were 67 3+, 68 2+, and 55 1+. Correlation between HC+PQI and HER2 FISH was 95.5% (64/67) for 3+/amplified and 100% (55/55) for <2+/nonamplified (overall concordance 97.5%). Using FISH as the gold standard, the HC+PQI interpretation reduced the false positive rate from 13% (15/108) to 3% (4/108). 17 of 63 HER2 nonamplified samples originally scored 2+ were changed to 1+ on HC+PQI (i.e. reduction of FISH testing by 27% (17/63)).
Conclusions: Relative to the original report scores, HC+PQI improved correlation with HER2 FISH and reduced the overall number of 2+ results (potentially reducing the number of FISH tests required). These data also objectively highlight the importance of the “chickenwire” pattern in positive result interpretation for HER2.
