  1. 1. Simulating metal ct artefacts for ground truth generation in deep learning.

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Biomedicinsk teknik

    Author : Arthur Barakat; [2023]
    Keywords : Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : CT scanning stands as one of the most employed imaging techniques used in clinical field. In the presence of metal implants in the field of view (FOV), distortions and noise appear on the 3D image leading to inaccurate bone segmentation, often required for surgery planning or implant design.

  3. 2. Deep Learning-Based Bone Segmentation of the Metatarsophalangeal Joint : Using an Automatic and an Interactive Approach

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för kemi, bioteknologi och hälsa (CBH)

    Author : Hannah Krogh; [2023]
    Keywords : Deep Learning; CNN; U-Net; DeepEdit; Bone Segmentation; CT; MTP Joint;

    Abstract : The first Metatarsophalangeal (MTP) joint is essential for foot biomechanics and weight-bearing activities. Osteoarthritis in this joint can lead to pain, discomfort, and limited mobility. In order to treat this, Episurf Medical is working to produce individualized implants based on 3D segmentations of the joint. READ MORE

  4. 3. Segmentation of x-ray images using deep learning trained on synthetic data

    University essay from KTH/Fysik

    Author : Marcus Larsson; [2023]
    Keywords : Radiography; Deep Learning; Synthetic Data; Segmentation; Röntgen; Djupinlärning; Syntetisk Data; Segmentering;

    Abstract : Radiograph examinations play a critical role in various applications such as the detection of bone pathologies and lung cancer, despite the challenge of false negatives. The integration of Artificial Intelligence (AI) holds promise in enhancing image quality and assisting radiologists in their diagnostic processes. READ MORE

  5. 4. Visualizing osteonecrosis of jaws through neutrophil elastase : [11C]NES novel PET tracer

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för läkemedelskemi

    Author : Amanda Dannberg; Theodora Martinez; [2023]
    Keywords : [11C]NES; HNC; MRONJ; neutrophil granulocytes; ORN; osteonecrosis; PET CT; radiation therapy; [11C]NES; huvud- och halscancer; MRONJ; neutrofila granulocyter; ORN; osteonekros; PET CT; strålbehandling;

    Abstract : Radiation and medical drugs are used to fight head and neck cancer, but unfortunately in some cases these treatments cause development of other diseases and injuries. Osteoradionecrosis (ORN) and medical-related osteonecrosis of the jaw (MRONJ) are dreaded late complications in jaws from radiation therapy and medical drugs and cause great suffering to those affected.

  6. 5. Feasibility of quantitative 99mTc-DPD scintigraphy SPECT/CT for assessing the burden of ATTR cardiac amyloidosis

    University essay from Umeå universitet/Radiofysik

    Author : Sajad Kadhim Khalaf; [2023]
    Keywords : QSPECT; Amyloidosis; ATTR; LVMI; Recovery Coefficient; SUV; Calibration;

    Abstract : Background: Amyloid transthyretin (ATTR) cardiomyopathy is caused by the deposition of misfolded proteins, known as amyloid fibrils, in the myocardium. Quantitative Single Photon Emission Computed Tomography (QSPECT) utilizing 99mTc-DPD scintigraphy has the potential to assess ATTR-suspected cardiac amyloidosis (CA). READ MORE
