Positron Emission Tomography: Can crystals used in particle detectors save lives? / Bressan, Beatrice (Universita e INFN, Bologna (IT)) ; Foka, Yiota (GSI - Helmholtzzentrum fur Schwerionenforschung GmbH (DE)) ; Bruant Gulejova, Barbora (Universitaet Bern (CH)) ; Hatzifotiadou, Despina (Universita e INFN, Bologna (IT))
The Positron Emission Tomography (PET) is explained as a medical imaging technique widely used in hospitals to detect anomalies in the body of patients (like cancer tumors) on a daily basis. The article explains how PET works and how knowledge of basic physics processes is used to visualize the physiological processes in biological systems [...]

Muography - Invisible particles help to reveal invisible structures / Hatzifotiadou, Despina (Universita e INFN, Bologna (IT)) ; Mueller, Katharina (University of Zurich (CH)) ; Foka, Yiota (GSI - Helmholtzzentrum fur Schwerionenforschung GmbH (DE))
Among the IPPOG Forum members, many experimentalists work with (or even developed) specialized muon detectors for the purposes of fundamental research. However, such devises find many direct applications for society spanning from scanning lories and controlling the nuclear fuel that was spent in power plants to exploring underground cavities..

Superconductivity – quantum mechanics at work / Mueller, Katharina (University of Zurich (CH)) ; Foka, Yiota (GSI - Helmholtzzentrum fur Schwerionenforschung GmbH (DE))
Super-conductivity is brought to the general public by emphasizing one of the most amazing applications: levitating trains like the maglev in Shanghai.  The main author had the privilege to work on high temperature superconductivity at the University of Zurich at the time of the big breakthrough in 1986 with the discovery of high-temperature superconductors , for which the two scientists, K. Alex Müller and J. [...]

Availability of technology for managing cancer patients in the Southeast European (SEE) region / Dosanjh, Manjit (CERN ; Int. Cancer Expert Corps, Washington) ; Ristova, Mimoza (CERN ; Skopje U.) ; Gershan, Vesna (Skopje U.) ; Georgieva, Petya (CERN) ; Balin Kovacevic, Marijana ; Bregu, Ledio ; Coralic, Irma ; Djurovic, Tamara ; Dosieva, Deyana ; Foka, Yiota (CERN ; Darmstadt, GSI) et al.
Background: The Southeast European (SEE) region of 10 countries and about 43 million people differs from Western Europe in that most SEE countries lack active cancer registries and have fewer diagnostic imaging devices and radiotherapy (RT) units. The main objective of this research is to initiate a common platform for gathering SEE regional cancer data from the ground up to help these countries develop common cancer management strategies. Methods: To obtain detailed on-the-ground information, we developed separate questionnaires for two SEE groups: a) ONCO - oncologists regarding cancer treatment modalities and the availability of diagnostic imaging and radiotherapy equipment; and b) REG - national radiation protection and safety regulatory bodies regarding diagnostic imaging and radiotherapy equipment in SEE facilities. Results: Based on responses from 13/17 ONCO participants (at least one from each country) and from 9/10 REG participants (all countries but Albania), cancer incidence rates are higher in those SEE countries that have greater access to diagnostic imaging equipment while cancer mortality-to-incidence (MIR) ratios are higher in countries that lack radiotherapy equipment. Conclusion: By combining unique SEE region information with data available from major global databases, we demonstrated that the availability of diagnostic imaging and radiotherapy equipment in the SEE countries is related to their economic development.
