Tissue chemical analysis with muonic x rays.
The stopped muon channel at the Clinton P. Anderson Meson Physics Facility was used as a source of muons for studying the elemental composition of tissue via muonic x rays. The x-ray spectra from several types of tissue were used to determine the amounts of carbon, nitrogen, and oxygen present. These determinations agree with the results of more conventional chemical analysis. Muonic x rays offer a noninvasive technique for determining the amounts of the more abundant elements in selected regions of the body.

Calculations of two-dimensional electric field and potential distributions aroun electrodes in conducting media.
Tumor cells can be killed by heating to 42.5degreesC. It is convenient to localize heating by passing electric current at 500 kHz through tissue between a pair of electrodes. It is desirable to determine, for a given electrode-tissue configuration, what the resulting field and, therefore, current distribution will be. A computer program FFEARS was used to calculate electric field and potential distributions in two dimensions for three simple cases.
