    Abstract: Biocompatible and biodegradable polymers are provided herein as compositions, methods, and systems for making the compositions. These polymers can be adjustably stable and used in medical applications as adhesives and sealants, and in non-medical applications. Radical polymerization protocols, and two-step cationic and radical polymerization protocols, are provided for the creation of stable, polydisulfide polymers, which can be done in aqueous solution and at ambient and in vivo temperatures ranging, for example, from 0° C. to 37° C. The compositions are biocompatible and can be used as fast curing, biocompatible and biodegradable adhesives and sealants suitable for use in the consumer, industrial, military and medical arts, namely as a functional biomaterial, sustainable plastic, surgical superglue, bone adhesive, pressure-sensitive adhesive, structural adhesive, and other relevant sustainable materials with closed-loop recycling.

    Abstract: A method for carrier aggregation receives a signal with multiple non-contiguous carrier bands. Frequency converting of the signal to a compressed single intermediate frequency band with a pseudonoise code applied to a local oscillation of each of the multiple non-contiguous carrier bands while maintaining separation of the multiple non-contiguous carrier bands permits reduced complexity digital signal processing to detect spectral power density and demodulate waveforms across multiple channels. A receiver includes a pseudorandom noise generator applying a pseudo noise code to the local oscillator generator to produce a unique set of spectral tones in the output signal that sample-specific channels over the multiple non-contiguous carrier bands.

    Abstract: A method and system for automated correction of phase error in MRI-based flow evaluation employs a computer processor programmed to execute a trained convolutional neural network (CNN) to receive and process image data comprising flow velocity data in three directions and magnitude data collected from a region of interest over a scan period from magnetic resonance imaging instrumentation. The image data is processed using the trained CNN to generate three output channels with pixelwise inferred corrections for the flow velocity data which are further smoothed using a regression algorithm. The smoothed corrections are added to the original image data to generate corrected flow data, which may be used for flow visualization and quantization.

    Abstract: A system and method for delivering radiation therapy to a patient includes generating a radiation therapy plan and adjusting a shape of at least one of a plurality of multi-leaf collimators (MLCs) arranged in an arc about a patient bed to create a respective plurality of desired beam profiles for each of the plurality of MLCs to thereby implement the ultrafast radiation therapy plan delivery. The method further includes control a radiation therapy source to execute the radiation therapy plan by creating the respective plurality of desired beam profiles for each of the plurality of MLCs.
