    Abstract: A system for breast cancer detection using co-localized ultrasound-mammography is disclosed. The system includes an examination box having a cavity connected to a side opening. A compression plate is connected to an actuator, the actuator configured to advance a surface of the compression plate towards a breast positioned within the cavity from the side opening to compress and stabilize the breast. An x-ray device is configured to generate at least one mammography image. An ultrasound probe is configured to generate at least one ultrasound image. A controller is operably connected to the x-ray device and ultrasound probe, the controller configured generate an image based on co-localization of the at least one mammography image and at the least one ultrasound image. A method of performing breast cancer detection and methods of breast imaging are also disclosed.

    Abstract: The present invention relates generally in part to BeO-based compounds that are capable of storing at least part of the energy of incident ionizing radiation and releasing at least part of the stored energy upon optical stimulation and heating. BeO-based compounds dosimetry was also developed in instrumentation, application and fundamental investigations. The present disclosure further relates the to the investigation of a BeO-based optically stimulated luminescence (OSL) dosimeter together with an OSL reader, and discusses the design and operation of an OSL reader, suitable to measure OSL emission of BeO-based dosimeters, for example beryllium oxide doped with sodium, dysprosium and erbium. The present disclosure further relates to the use of BeO-based compounds comprising BeO and at least one dopant selected from the group consisting of sodium, dysprosium and erbium as a fiber-coupled OSL dosimeter.
