Abstract: Selective photothermolysis (SP) is widely used in clinical and cosmetic dermatology to remove unwanted skin structures. Careful laser parameter selection results in safe and effective target removal. Nevertheless, parameter selection relies on a trial-and-error process based on visual inspection of the immediate skin response. This process is highly dependent on the practitioner experience and can be time-consuming.
SP and optoacoustic imaging (OI) share many physical principles. However, the possibility of using OI to improve laser parameter selection in SP has not been studied before. Here, we explore the relationship between OI and SP theoretically and through clinical in-human trials with a focus on tattoo removal. Our results demonstrate a strong correlation between OI signals acquired before and after treatment with the immediate clinical endpoint, suggesting that OI could be used as a tool for optimal parameter selection and reduced treatment duration in tattoo removal and other SP treatments.

Jannik Sinner (1) beats Jan-Lennard Struff 7-5 7-6(4) 6-5
Struff gave it all he had, but Sinner was far too good and might, perhaps, have played himself into a bit of form.
Next for him: Auger-Aliassime or Djokovic

Too Good to Be True: A Study on Modern Automatic Speech Recognition for the Evaluation of Speech Enhancement

Abstract: Speech enhancement (SE) systems are typically evaluated using a variety of instrumental metrics. The use of automatic speech recognition (ASR) systems to evaluate SE performance is common in literature, usually in terms of word error rate (WER). However, WER scores depend heavily on the choice of ASR system and text normalization pipeline. In this paper, we investigate how modern ASR models correlate with human recognition of enhanced speech. A listening experiment reveals that modern ASR models with large-scale noisy training and embedded language models correlate more with human WER than simpler ones, with a transducer model providing the most reliable transcriptions. Nevertheless, we also show that these models' robustness to noise and use of context can be uninformative to an acoustics-focused evaluation of enhancement performance.

Abstract: In external beam radiotherapy, 3D scanning water phantoms are the gold standard for obtaining relative dosimetry data. These phantoms, consisting of a water tank and mechanical arm, along with accompanying software, are de-signed to acquire dose profiles along and orthogonal to the beam axis. In brachy-therapy, the acquisition of analogous dose profiles is more difficult, and is generally achieved with complex custom-built phantoms or chemical dosimeters such as film or gel. In this study, a low-cost 3D-printed jig was designed and fabricated within a clinical department, to allow precise brachytherapy dose measurements using a PTW BeamScan water phantom. Specifically, this jig al-lowed applicators to be suspended securely and reproducibly within the water phantom. Protocols were developed to relate the scanning system coordinates to the physical source position, and to obtain isodose planes both parallel and radial to the source axis. The developed solution has the potential to be used for physical verification of TG43 dose calculation parameters (e.g. anisotropy functions), the characterization of dose for a single dwell position in a complex applicator containing non-water equivalent materials, or the collection of point dose measure-ments for treatments incorporating multiple dwell positions or catheters.
