A system and method for reducing a number of cancerous cells in the body through use of a treatment package a mixture of scintillating organic silicon-based polymer and a nitric oxide (NO) release agent at least partially surrounded by a functional material that facilitates consumption of the treatment package by a macrophage. The macrophage travels to the tumor and is then radiated with X-ray radiation causing the scintillating polymer to emit photons at a first wavelength which strike and causing the release agent to release substance toxic to the cancer cells. The scintillating polymer may comprise polydimethylsiloxane. The release agents may comprise one or more of the following: iron, copper, CrONO, Ruthenium (phen)(NO)(Cl), and Roussin's black salt. The scintillating polymer is selected such that the emitted photon wavelength corresponds to a wavelength of maximum absorption by the release agent.

A radiation reduction system that includes a computer and an imaging device configured to provide an image of a subject during a medical procedure using electromagnetic radiation. A variety of inputs are accepted from the medical practitioner using the computer such as subject body type, weight, and the like. These user inputs are used by the computer to determine operating settings that are transmitted to the imaging device either manually, a wired connection or wirelessly. The calculated settings are useful to generate one or more medically useful images of the subject while significantly reducing the overall radiation exposure to the subject and/or the personnel and/or medical practitioner.

A tiled interactive screen comprises a mounting surface and tiles mounted on the mounting surface. Each tile comprises a tile substrate with photoluminescent marks disposed in a pattern on or in the tile substrate. Each photoluminescent mark is unique with respect to every other photoluminescent mark on any of the tiles, each photoluminescent mark comprises a pattern encoding information specifying the location of the photoluminescent mark on the tile, and each tile substrate is at least partially transparent to light absorbed by the photoluminescent marks and is at least partially transparent to light emitted by the photoluminescent marks. The photoluminescent marks respond to stimulating electromagnetic radiation by emitting electromagnetic radiation. A tiled photonic interactive system comprises a tiled photonic interactive screen and an optical stylus operable to emit stimulating radiation onto one or more photoluminescent marks and respond to electromagnetic radiation emitted by the stimulated photoluminescent marks.

The present disclosure provides a method of making an orthodontic article. The method includes (a) providing a photopolymerizable composition; (b) selectively curing the photopolymerizable composition using actinic radiation to form an article in the shape of an orthodontic article including a number of layers of at least one photopolymerized polymer; and (c) moving the article and thereby generating a mass inertial force in the uncured photopolymerizable composition. The article has a first surface, and no more than 75% of the first surface has a slope magnitude greater than 2.5 degrees. Orthodontic articles are also provided, including an orthodontic article that is prepared according to the method. Orthodontic articles having low extractable component content are further provided. The mass inertial force tends to form a coating layer of uncured photopolymerizable composition on the article, and curing the coating layer can form a surface having low slope magnitude. The low slope magnitude may be correlated to a low haze of the surface of the article.
